[QUOTE="Calvin45, post: 2760065, member: 109862"] regarding cold weld…I’m entirely convinced that overzealous cleaning practices, both on brass and rifle bores, often cause more problems than they solve. A film of carbon in the neck left “uncleaned” is good (and chemically not different than graphite haha, though the molecular structure won’t be the same so I’m not claiming it’s identical). I’ve never used a rotary tumbler or ultrasonic cleaner. Never used metal pins or ceramic media. No wet tumbling. Just basic corncob in a Lyman vibratory. No issues with decade old handloads. As for factory, I’ve shot ammo in dads .30-30 from the early 70s. No problems. [/QUOTE]
