What a load of crap mate.
The reason it doesn't seem to effect DR is that they are only shot at 25-75 yards most of the time and accuracy is only about an 1/8 of a bolt gun and shot with open sights.

And no I don't own a DR either before you mention it.

If using my rifles but not firing a lot of shots I wont clean for a couple of weeks but normally clean every 20 - 30 rnds as a rule.

When I was roo shooting I would clean every night weather 20 shots or 100.

Just by shear volume of copper it will take a lot to get that fouling out.

What is your magic copper solvent as I am obsessive with solvents and there's not to many I haven't tried.

My best list is 1= JB's
2= Pro shot copper solvent
3= Gunslick foaming bore cleaner
4= Sweets

OK,so let me have it and point out my mistakes please.





Not sure about you but accuracy 1/8th of a bolt gun ?We check any DR's we shoot before going out and fon't have any problem putting them in a 4" circle where aimed.

If I was roo shooting, I would do the same.

Re "magic copper solvent", not magic, just what works for me (and it has been mentioned before on this forum). I agree that JB and pro shot are good, I don't like the other two, especially "Sweets 7.62" which is why I origianlly moved away from ammonia based cleaners.

I moved to Wipe out Foam Bore cleaner but now that that is not available, I use WIPE OUT PATCH OUT which is essentially a stronger liquid form of the WIPE OUT Foam Bore Cleaner.

And if in a hurry, I also use a bit if the WIPE OUT accelerator which speeds up the process (and was originally designed for bench rest shooters in time constraints.
