Been using cfe 223 and cfe bulk,in my varmint rifles, a vartarg,223 a.i.,fireball and a 6b.r..Those powders pretty much takes care of copper in the different barrels, but leaves a fair amount of powder fowling, what's the best solvent for removing the powder fouling?

My favorite the last couple years has been Bore Tech Eliminator, it gets the powder and copper. just because you shoot CFE doesn't mean there is no copper just reduced ammounts

Bore Tech makes good products but I've found Wipe Out works a little faster. Montana Extreme is good if you use it outside. If overnight is okay, Shooter's Choice still works well. I've tried Butch's Bore Shine, Hoppe's Benchrest, and probably many others. Don't remember much about them so I guess results weren't too remarkable.

Defiantly still takes some time & elbow grease. Yet Bore tech gets the job done. Never hurts to remind that a good bore guide & cleaning rod are important as well. Otherwise we risk doing more harm than good.

Hoppes BR9........Kroil
Butches & Kroil......shot wet after cleaning
my varmint barrels are Pac Nor.....using moly coated boolits
precision barrels will foul less...requiring less aggressive solvents
along with less cleaning.....every 100 rds or so in the p/dog fields

who knows, Emery has been here 6 weeks, or less and has 26 posts...
for some reason, I've already got him on ignore...
probably for being another leftist troll....
so my recommendation is to use dishwater, with a high salt content...
let it air dry afterwards in a cool, damp wet environment...

Well I certainly have no problem being put in my place and being corrected when I am wrong... I owe you a thank you for doing so.. and an apology evidently... Doesn't sound like you would be the type I'd put on ignore.. far from it... So it must have been a screw up on my end for some reason.. A screw up I have promptly corrected.... cheers and best regards

Seafire, Apology accepted,I'm sure if we ever met we would find we had a lot in common.Never could figure out what I did to get on your poop list, that's now in the past.Bye the way,I bought one of those (my pillows) love it,I named it donald trump, cause I sleep so much better knowing he's President. I thank God every day he did win, cause if Hillary had I believe you could have stuck a fork in the good old U.S.A. could we would have been done.Best regards.

Started using it this year and it is awesome stuff! Bore Tech also makes a solvent just for carbon fouling as well that doesnt remove copper.

I've got them all, from Sweets to Speedy's Formula to Kroil, the entire mess. I also have Hoppes White Album Number Nine. I will say that the special sauce I'm liking the most is Wipe Out or Patch out, mostly for what it does to copper. But BR 9 and regular 9 seem to work well enough for the powder part of the equation, knowing that CARBON is a little different than powder fouling.
Of course, if you want your life to be perfect, do what JB does and use Dyna.

I use Wipe-Out foam. Works great. Follow the directions on the can.
And thank you for your service.

I like Montana Extreme, but my sinuses are toast anyhow. It's a VERY strong aroma, and requires a solid dose of fresh air afterwards. It's about as good as I've seen. It's stout stuff.
You can roll a turd in peanuts, dip it in chocolate, and it still ain't no damn Baby Ruth.
