Also, after using WIPE OUT, make sure you OIL the bore well as Wipe out will pull out all oils and lubricants and leave the metal bare of any protection.
You will find the bore really "grabby" when you try
putting a patch though it.
absolutely - even after using any of the amonia solvents - some sort of oil must be used, or the bore will pickup copper on the first shot. I like Kroil for that, mixing it about 30% into Butches Bore shine. This leaves a touch of oil, so the bore isn't dry.
Some BR shooters used to use Hoppe's #9 for the same purpose - for it's oil properties. It doesn't clean worth a hoot, anymore. The other solvents like Butches, Shooters, etc are superior for powder fouling and copper too. Another dog today, is Hoppe's Bench Rest - out of the others league.
