[QUOTE="Wedgy, post: 2896000, member: 64108"] That's the same one I got from ebay more than 5 years ago and I still have most of it left. I run it on lathe turned bullets so I use acetone to get the oil off and 99% isopropyl (from a pharmacy) to swab the bore. I use a reduced load on the 1st shot after treating the bore as the pressure is higher on the 1st shot. Cold bore, clean bore, etc. are all in the pattern. I got tired of fixing and drilling out hollow points so I only use it on tipped bullets. My velocity dropped a bit over 40fps when I started coating bullets and had to add powder to get back to the same speed window which confirmed I was doing something correct. Never thought about it increasing barrel life but you have to add more powder for the same velocity which should increase heat.... hmmm. Thanks for posting, it will probably make me coat for another rifle ! [/QUOTE]
