[QUOTE="spfarr, post: 2319649, member: 44616"] FWIW - if your evaluation confirms that your rifle prefers a clean barrel, you might want to try the SmoothKote products. I learned of this product via John Plaster's book. This product (or comparable) entails cleaning the barrel of [U]all[/U] fouling, and all solvents, down to bare metal. The molybendum disulfate is then applied in a liquid form via wet patches, to molecularly bond with the barrel. Then the molybendum is applied in a powder form (via patches) to potentially fill any gaps. Thereafter, your barrel cleaning usually entails at least 3-4 passes with a (stiff) nylon brush, and then clean, dry patches. The treatment will of course need to be periodically re-done, depending upon how much you shoot. by applying the molybendum directly to the barrel, you don't get the "moly ring" in the throat that was experienced by shooters who applied moly directly to their bullets. I'm no expert (on anything), but this product has worked well on all the rifles on which i've used it. [/QUOTE]
