[QUOTE="dok7mm, post: 1131630, member: 90080"] Thanks Phorwath. I do know the difference, as I have been exploring using the combination of a Melonited barrel and the HBN bullet coating for use on a new 7STW. Being this was the HBN thread, I wanted to be sure I understood what Idaho elk hunter was referencing. I also believe in proper break-in of barrels to smooth things up. I expect my Bartleins to be very accurate, but it takes a few more rounds for me to establish that to my satisfaction, prior to shipping a barrel off to be nitride soaked. I too, doubt the CFE would cause a problem in a nitride treated barrel, but not so sure in a HBN treated barrel. Barely passed chemistry, so I don't really know how CFE works to lessen fouling. I do believe the nitride is better for extended throat life and the HBN can't hurt, especially in the realm of consistant neck tension and added lubricity. I appreciate your response. [/QUOTE]
