[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 595875, member: 1521"] Better aftermarket barrels arrive with a perfect hand lapped finish. Like Michael said, it's not too fine, or too rough. It's perfect for least copper fouling. Neco is not Tubb's, and nobody ever suggested that you should excessively firelap. Excessive anything is bad. Competitors keep their barrels in a stable state, and manage carbon or bullet coating buildups. They use JB NON-EMBEDDING BORE CLEANING COMPOUND. When needed, I use it also: [url=http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/pid=1160/Product/J-B-reg-NON-EMBEDDING-BORE-CLEANING-COMPOUND]J-B® NON-EMBEDDING BORE CLEANING COMPOUND - Brownells[/url] What they don't/shouldn't use(ever) is JB BORE BRIGHT(I called it bore polish earlier): [url=http://www.brownells.com/.aspx/pid=1161/Product/J-B-reg-BORE-BRIGHT]J-B® BORE BRIGHT - Brownells[/url] I know the marketing claims this & that for Bore Bright.. It is bad marketing, and I have a friend that recently ruined a 6br barrel with it. He didn't realize there were two different JB compounds out there, and sure enough used the wrong one. Then when his fouling increased he took advice from these forums and used even more! [/QUOTE]
