[QUOTE="PrairieGhost, post: 102163, member: 704"] I think the barrel of my 308 got to smooth and copper on a smooth surface appears to me to stick faster than on a slightly rough surface. I think the bore got smooth from cleaning it every time I shot and using J B Bore Cleaner. It isn't supposed to polish a barrel, but I think it did. I also had to recrown a 223 Featherweight because a drop of copper solvent always clung to the end of the barrel and etched the crown. Now I use Wipe Out, and I have taken old barrels and left it in for a week to test it out. It doesn't appear to do any damage and I have put in new Wipe Out every week for a couple of months.
