[QUOTE="Deleted member 107796, post: 1662836"] This old dog learned a new trick. I've always used a sloppy solvent patch and let the barrel sit overnight as suggested by Hoppes Benchrest but his time I left it barrel down. It pooled the broken down copper and when finished, there was much less visible fouling. If you were to leave the barrel horizontal, I'd flip flop it a few times thru the soak to avoid a non uniform cleaning. In short, a coating is ok but a soaking is better. [/QUOTE]
