If my powder pellets are sticks, it might burn too slow for a (relatively short) 20" bbl but if the powder burns to quick it's harder on the bbl and could create some funky harmonics.</p><p></p><p>On a related note, I'm looking for a gun cleaner that'll remove carbon but not copper.</p><p></p><p>Reconmendations for suitable powder?
