I have a new kimber rifle that I was wondering if bore coating it would be beneficial. Do you think by bore coating a rifle that needs cleaning very frequently(browning 7mag)to retain accuracy would allow more shots between cleaning.

A little searching will show wonders.

As to the questions, directly:

Yes, it'd be beneficial, to both, and for at least the reason cited in the last question.

I have had some good results by properly conditioning with Moly.

Never seen a rifle that needed cleaning.

Given the fact you don't shoot anything and just type BS on a key board, that is not surprising.

You dumbphuck.

UBC is all good. Won't turn a dog into a blue ribbon winner, but it'll be a cleaner dog! grin

FWIW, I run it in most my stuff, and in heavy foulers, it has proven to be a winner. On the higher end tubes, it has made cleaning a breeze, and I have noticed a few extra FPS.

I treated a 7mm08 700 Mtn Guide and it only takes two patches wetted with Butch's bore shine and a few dry patches to clean it. In addition, I haven't cleaned my muzzleloader barrel in 2 years.
Works as advertised.

It will let you shoot more rounds between needed cleaning. My 7 REM. MAG. has an E.R.Shaw bbl. and I clean it about every 150 rounds.
