[QUOTE="keithcandler, post: 1933396, member: 3728"] There is no horror in getting educated by what a bore scope can teach you. What you learn will last you the rest of your life, and you can use your Teslong to help others, also. If/when you see the rail road tracks in your barrel as Sherm explained, this can not be lapped out or smoothed out from shooting...only to a very minor degree. Brownell's makes a product that is a paste to use as a lapping "Abrasive compound", 600 & 800 Grit Silicone carbide. 600 grit Abrasive Compound: product # 083-045-600 800 grit Abrasive Compound: Product # 083-045-800 I use these on tight fitting patches, 5 patches each, short stroking on the very worst of really rough barrels. It is best to use a bore scope with the above abrasive compounds to monitor your progress because you are removing metal. For the average guy that just wants to clean his barrel in a hurry, Montana Extreme makes a great product that does not lap the barrel, it is called: Montana Extreme Copper Cream, and it is a world class product to use on punch type jags that fit tight or plastic brushes, and Montana Extreme makes some of the finest plastic brushes for this purpose. I actually prefer the Copper Cream over JB due to ease of use. Copper is easy to get out of a barrel with many products, that Carbon is a serious and often VERY, VERY difficult thing to get out of a barrel. [/QUOTE]
