[QUOTE="cohunt, post: 2690236, member: 94491"] If you have stripped it/ cleaned it down to bare metal (with fire cracking)--- you might need to "season" it again-- shoot 1 or 2- clean- repeat--- if you can get a little carbon built back up it will help resist the copper fouling. I know some guys that actually will "dust" the clean bare steel barrel with graphite powder before shooting to keep the copper fouling to a minimum. I've never tried it though Each bore is slightly different so you might have to try a few things-2900 rounds is getting up there too but if it's still printing .3 groups than it could have more life in it Probably going to be a wide range of opinions here though. Good luck and let us know what you figure out [/QUOTE]
