[QUOTE="3006savage, post: 236199, member: 12069"] I used the Tubbs kit, 1/2 the bullets and it worked well in my 06 savage it was also a used barrel. It was ok shooting but was a bear to clean. Before using Tubbs bulltets you need to throughly clean the barrel with sweets or equal, and clean every 3-5 shots with shooters choice or equal. I could only shoot 3 shots thru my savage and the barrel was too hot to fire. I would just clean the barrel while waiting for it to cool. My groups shrunk from 1 1/4 to 3/4" and velocities were unchanged. After Tubbs cleaning was much better and most importantly two tight spots in the barrel were completely eliminated. I had a lot of reservations about using this product and decided if it messed up my barrel I had an excuse to buy a new Shilen. Fortunately it worked very well and I am very pleased with my results.
