[QUOTE="Michael Eichele, post: 268927, member: 1007"] When you clean your rifle, do you think it is clean? Or is it clean down to the bare metal? Sometimes when you clean a barrel, you may think it is clean but really isnt. After so many sessions of shooting and cleaning more and more build up occurs and you can see you symtoms. That doesnt meen that is your problem, just a possibility. I honestly dont know the life expectancy of a 270 so I cant say the barrel is on its way out or not but I would definatley give her a DEEP cleaning and see if that helps. Try JB bore paste and scrub her real good a few times. Then clean the paste out with solvent. After that you may try soaking the barrel in sweets 7.62 solvent for 10 minutes or so. Again, remove ALL sweets by use of another solvent. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
