[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 350676, member: 4191"] My response was both general and specific to your question. Many opinions out there but I would go about it this way. [U]I only apply GJ to any of my bores after I'm certain they are stripped clean of carbon and copper fouling so as to not seal the dirt in under the Gun Juice[/U]. If your bore was cleaned with Gun Juice and you've fired 100 rounds since the last maintenance application of Gun Juice, then I would prep the bore for another swabbing with GJ and then shoot the first shot over the GJ treated/ wetted bore preferably, or GJ wetted and dried bore by the time you get to the gun range. If your GJ treated bore still coppers some after complete GJ treatment, and you wanted to clean the bore due to copper fouling with much fewer than 100 rounds fired since the last GJ swabbing, then based on what Fiftydriver has seen through bore scopes, apply a light oil lubricant coating to the bore after cleaning to help minimize first shot copper fouling. If you haven't cleaned your GJ treated bore since the last outing/shooting, then just go shoot over the fouled bore - a non issue. As to whether Kroil is better than Rem Oil, is better than Tri-Flow, is better than Brake Free's CLP, is better than Tertra Tech products - I doubt that anyone knows other than the sales reps for each of those companies. And I think we know what they recommend. My thoughts and $0.02 [/QUOTE]
