hwd---The story about jacketed bullets cleaning lead outta a barrel is B.S--it will actually put a layer of copper over the lead already in there.Stick with hardcast bullets and drive 'em at the right speed to stop those leading problems
Lead in my barrel!
I loaded some 250 semi-wadcutter bullets recently in front of charge of Clays and shot all 100 in one afternoon. I didn't look down my barrel til I got home and have been trying to get this mess out every since. I've been running a wet patch down the barrel and letting it soak for awhile then running a brush thru it multiple times. THIS CRAP WON"T COME OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If I were to load up a couple of rather warm JHP bullets and shoot them,would this blow this mess out of my barrel.
After all this I went back a took a close look at these bullets. They seem rather soft.I should probably pull the ones I have loaded now and not shoot them.
Any comments or suggestions? I've not tried a Toronado brush yet but am headed to the gun store tomorrow.
