[QUOTE="Alibiiv, post: 1614590, member: 69192"] Hello Len, thanks for the great write up on barrel cleaning. You wrote that you do not recommend ammonia based bore cleaners, is TETRA consider an ammonia based cleaner. I use Tetra bore cleaner to clean out my Whelen and .358 Win due to using Barnes bullets, now I'm concerned about harming the barrels. I also read about the Tipton bore guides, I just recently purchased a Hornady bore cleaning guide, should I scrap it and go to a Tipton instead, $14 or $20 is not going to make that much difference it it protects my barrel if one considers the cost of a rebarrel. After cleaning my barrels I always use a product called RIG that I put on a nylon brush and swab the barrel quite heavily with it to prevent rust, am I doing any harm to the barrel with this procedure. Thanks again your posts are always informative and great to read. [/QUOTE]
