Hi everyone and happy New Year. I picked up a 300 WSM A-Bolt with a 26" barrel and ran maybe 10 shots through it and cleaned it with Butches Bore shine. I used Re 17 for the loads and couldn't believe the amount of crud that came out of that gun. After the initial 10 shots I shot 5 more, cleaned it and filth again. I've been reloading for some 20 years and never saw so much powder residue in a barrel. I was close with 10X a few years ago but this is amazing. Has anyone else found this with Re 17? Thanks for the replies PaLuke
