[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1979477, member: 69478"] I haven’t bought a borescope yet simply for the reason that I’m afraid it would give me more things to worry about haha. Seriously though, I use to use Shooter’s Choice with PH jags and bronze brushes. I never knew if the blue was from the copper in the barrel or from the jag/brush. I just would clean it until it looked less dirty than when I started, there was no real science or anything behind it haha. Then I got nylon brushes, Proof Positive jags, and BoreTech Eliminator. This eliminated the possibility of getting false copper signs. The problem with this stuff in my experience is it cleans so well that it gets rid of 99% of the copper and carbon. That meant it took more than a few fouling shots in my barrels to get back up to speed and back into the node. So now instead of cleaning until the patches are clean, I just clean until the carbon is gone and the patches just have a hint of blue on them. This leaves a little fouling in the barrel but cleans out the excess. Everyone has their own techniques and beliefs, but this is what I have been doing and it’s a lot faster and less hassle than my past methods. Just my opinion and experience. [/QUOTE]
