[QUOTE="bblaine2k, post: 6786, member: 1440"] Did a search for thoughts on cleaning barrel while trying to determine most accurate load. Here is what I found: Dave King Administrator Member # 3 posted 03-03-2003 02:56 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- What things do you all believe are NOT good in the way of practice(s). I'll put a few of mine on top to get this lit-off. Using equipment that is less accurate/precise than the shooter! I find this very frustrating and counter productive. Practice onto a non-individual round feedback target system... as examples - shooting into a berm, shooting onto steel that's already obliterated, shooting large single use targets (balloons, water jugs, etc) Michael Eichele Member Member # 1043 posted 01-14-2003 10:19 PM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Frankg, It helps ALOT if you clean your barrel before trying a different powder even if only a few have been fired from the previous.

Well, one person says one thing, another person says another. So far, there are one vote each for cleaning vs. not cleaning between volleys in load development. Would really appreciate some input on this! I don't know what to make of it [img]images/icons/confused.gif[/img] Thanks again, [/QUOTE]
