Been cleaning that RU 77 purchased .270 take-off barrel for a month now, including a 10 day soak while I was out of state, and 3X JB bore scrub.
Yesterday, I tackled my least-shot barrel, > 150 rnds XTR fwt 70 7mm. A couple iterations with wet patch, brush, dry patches and they looked alike! It got a JB scrub and both are now barrel down with Bore-Tek - and hang the slight grey rifling marks- I suspect they are steel marks anyway.
What the heck- they were both shooting well anyway....
Now, my .338WM Tanger - also MOA, which I started on tonight. It's a brassy SOB! 4 iterations wet patch /dry patches, still coming out blue. Soaking...,
I'm doing this why???
Well, once in anyone's life-time, maybe the guns should be cleaned????? Really cleaned???
Not that IGAF as long as they shoot well- which they do, or did.....
It's a winter hobby. Probably meaningless.
With my luck, it's gonna fug up the accuracy of some of my half-dozen....
