[QUOTE="ATH, post: 1577220, member: 1656"] Factory Remington barrels can be a fickle bunch. I have a Sendero bought circa 2002, 300WM. Always flat out shot, .3 MOA or so for 5-shot 100 yard groups. But I'd only at about 15 shots before it became a 2-3 MOA shotgun. Copper. Foaming One SHot didn't cut it, I'd plug the breech and fill the bore with copper solvent. Then it came back to normal. That got old, a number of years ago I did the Tubb bullet treatment, used the finer 3 grades, skipped the coarsest 2. Worked like a dream. Didn't impact accuracy, but the copper fouling issue abated and now I get 30-40 shots between cleanings. Still not like a custom barrel, but it's got 900 rounds on it now so I'm just waiting for it to open up and give me a reason... [/QUOTE]
