500nitro,

...this most certainly helps...

...i will have to try wipe-out on the barrels of a new o/u as a 'one-shot' new barrel cleaning proposition as compared to the 'one-shot/one-clean' regiment (with sweets, shooters choice, kroil, etc.) that i was weened on as a former bolt-action rifleman...

...would you know whether brownells, cabelas, etc. carries wipe-out here in the states?...

...thanks again for responding...
