Anybody with a bore scope ever used Lead-Away cloth to "break in" a rifle? Curious to know what if any comparisons can be made to this activity compared to the shoot/clean routine.




I have not tried it but, when I attended the seminar last year by Jarrett, he stated that the theory that not brushing a bore will NOT get the copper out of your barrel...so I have followed his recommendation ever since

He runs two wet patches through the bore to remove the powder residue--then he brushes the bore with an amonia type cleaner (Sweets)--lets it set for a bit--maybe 10 minutes--however be carefull as this can pit the barrel--then he runs a couple of dry batches through-if copper is still present he will repeat the process with the Sweets or similar product..
