[QUOTE="Rardoin, post: 2004976, member: 114954"] I've never heard of using baking soda as a bore scrub but I would not use any abrasive UNLESS you have a proper bore guide and a proper rod/jag that does not flex significantly and apply pressure to the side of the bore. The rod must also have a good bearing handle to allow free rotation of the rod so it twists with the rifling. I often use Iosso paste on a nylon brush (about every 350-400rds in comp barrels) to get rid of carbon fouling in the edges of the grooves and in the freebore. However, I have one piece fairly rigid freely rotating rod and use Lucas bore guides with the rod insert. I have seen no harm done in at least 15 barrels over the past 5 years...and yes...I have a good scope to check condition of my barrels. Using an abrasive without the above mentioned equipment is inviting problems. [/QUOTE]
