6mm barrel issues

Ya no kidding just like everything else in the world, including educated, helpful responses on forums...
I gave you my honest, real world experience answer.
I'm still at a loss as to when/how it was decided that copper was a bad thing.

And how many shooters clean the bejesus out of a barrel, then have to put "fouler shots" through it to get the accuracy they already had before they cleaned it?
All the "fouler" shots are doing is putting the copper back (that you removed) and smoothing out the imperfections.
Which helps with a better fit of bullet to bore, and helps with the gas seal.

I completely agree.
I typically do not spend hours wasting my time trying get every speck of copper out providing the rifle shoots to my expectation.
Only reason i even stuck a bore scope in this barrel is because i did not feel it was shooting as well as i think it should. I have used a few of these "get what you pay for" blanks with very good success. I dont have a problem with barrels that foul and i agree that some fouling is needed and not to worry about in my application. I do however have an expectation for how a barrel should perform after i spend multiple hours on it and an action.
Whole reason for the initial post is wondering if anyone has ever seen gauling present in a bore.
