[QUOTE="Deleted member 48126, post: 1347620"] Forgive me, I didn't read all the replies, so this might have already been said, but your barrel has reached a fouling equilibrium. That is where the amount of copper / fouling deposited is also taken away by the bullet as it leaves the barrel. It is currently in that sweet spot where as shoot it, it leaves some and takes some away. You should maintain your rifle, but do not clean the bore. You'll know when you have surpassed equilibrium because your rifle will open up its groups considerably. When it does that, do a deep cleaning to it, and then fire fouling shots to bring it back to its equilibrium. Great shooting rifle!! [/QUOTE]
