Sweets


A Doe walks out of the woods today and says, that is the last time I'm going to do that for Two Bucks.

Anyone ever found any difference between Sweets 7.62 and Barnes CR-10? I've always used the Barnes but I've been told they are essentially the same thing.

No difference that I could tell I use sweets mainly because it seems easier to find around here.

The CR-10 works fine at getting rid of all the copper fouling in My Ruger Hawkeye Ultra-Light Stainless 30.06, in fact with very little effort I can make it squeaky clean using Barnes CR-10 but this 700 XCR is a different animal. Is it the bullets I use in the 700? or the metal itself? I really can't explain it but I'm willing to try a stronger copper solvent (if there is one) What would it be? Sweets 7.62 maybe?...........Thanks Hillbilly.
..................Here`s a product that you may want to look into. Although I didn`t have a fouling issue, I ordered a bottle of this stuff anyway two months ago.

As I did, you can call 229-292-4613 and talk with Carl Deaton personally, tell him about your problem and learn about his product. If his stuff cannot remove your fouling, then it`s quite possible that nothing else will.

Montana extreme but use ventilation. Can laeave in barrel overnight, makes sweets look like water IMO.

I have tried butches bore shine, and many others, they are all good.

The best I have found to date is gunslick foaming bore cleaner.
It is the easiest and the quickest way to clean your rifles. It also does not have the foul smelling ammonia that my wife will get upset if she is home when I am using. TRY IT, I now have half empty bottles of solvent that are collecting dust after using it. here is the web sight.

JB paste + 1 caliber smaller brush wrapped with a cotton patch. Five minutes and one should be looking at dime bright steel.

I use j-b paste when cr-10 doesn't get the fouling out.
It will not take long.

Bore Tech Eliminator. You can leave it in the bore as long as you like, the reason I no longer use ammoniated products.
