[QUOTE="Craig Dodd, post: 107163, member: 4127"] I have a question on cleaning after using WC872. I have a 38 pound LR rifle in 6.5 Baer (very close to a 6.5 STW) and have been burning Retumbo in it. Being as the Retumbo canister was getting close to empty I broke open an 8# jug of WC872, which looked OK and smelled OK. Long story short, I started low and worked up all was OK with H-870 data other than when a round is fired the resulting smoke has sort of an odd odor. I normally wipe the necks on fired brass with a rag and Shooters Choice to take off the black gunk before resizing the brass. I wiped the necks on the WC872 cases and the black gunk stayed right there, tried several times and its still there. I tried wiping the necks with Slip 2000 Carbon Cutter and most of the black gunk remained. I looked at the bore with my Hawkeye and didn't see any black deposits remaining after cleaning with Carbon Cutter followed by Bore Tech Eliminator. Has anyone experienced any problems with cleaning following use of WC872? Craig in SE Idaho [/QUOTE]
