Barrel Break-In (or how to shorten a barrel's useful life)

IceAxe Wrote:I recently picked up some bulk Sierra moly bullets in 6mm to use in my 6mmx45. I read somewhere that you should clean out any copper fowling prior to shooting moly coated bullets. It is my first time shooting moly. I generally just snake the barrel with clp after shooting. I picked up some Montana copper killer and liberally applied it to a patch and let it sit for 15 minutes, when I ran a clean patch through...no blue. I repeated the process and still no blue. I don't know if it has something to do with the polygonal barrel or todays barrels have a better bore finish.


Soak a bronze brush in the stuff and brush your bore out and then wait a bit while it soaks and you'll think you killed a smurf.
