[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 750034, member: 48043"] When you have to scrub the hell out of the barrel to get the burned mess out it negates a lot of the savings in bore life you think you'll get. I've done both ways in a previous 7 stw. I'll shoot mild loads and watch barrel heating before I'll ever touch cornmeal again. I'm "on the wagon" on cornmeal and pistol powder. Half of your barrel life on these rounds is letting the barrel heat anyway. Take it out in zub- freezing temps if bore life bothers you. She'll cool a lot better. I've got some below zero coming up here; it's like getting a free lunch on bore life as you really can't heat them up. [/QUOTE]
