[QUOTE="JTB, post: 1833986, member: 97196"] I cleaned copper from a factory barrel that had lost accuracy and had never been cleaned with a copper reactive cleaner. It had well over 1000 rounds through it when I cleaned it. After allowing a copper cleaner to soak for a while the brush pushed out long spiral rings of copper that had built up over time. The owner had only used a lubricant over the years to clean the barrel. This gave me an entirely new perspective on copper build-up. I would say you need to occasionally remove the copper to prevent buildup over time but granted, most quality barrels seem less prone to excessive copper fouling. [/QUOTE]
