[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 2587720, member: 313"] According to Steve, they haven't seen a need to strip a bore clean when changing over to a Hammer bullet. I may test 10-15 different loads on a single outing and do not clean between bullet types. I shoot the 124 Hammer in a PRC myself but I will shoot groups with them right after a dozen or more Berger 156EOL bullets and still get great groups at the 400yds line where I normally test loads. "I think" that idea is a holdover from the Barnes bullet company who did recommend only shooting their X bullets in a squeaky-clean barrel. [/QUOTE]
