[QUOTE="jrock, post: 1365945, member: 78569"] Probably the best write up and compilation of information I've read. Good job. I have found that shooting 1 shot and cleaning for 5 shots gets the barrel most of the way there. 3 and 5 shot groups after that, don't really foul much more than the initial shots. Factory barrels require more work. I've had about a 50/50 response on using pastes. Some say any form of abrasive down the barrel is premature wear. After obtaining a bore scope and shooing 200 to 300 rounds, I can defiantly see the buildup in the first 6" of the barrel after normal cleaning. Shorter cleaning frequencies helps prevent this.
