Bore scope diagnosis?

[boltman13]

Flitz on a BoreTech stiff Nylon Brush or worn brass one if the carbon has hardened, but BoreTech C4 after a shooting session on a mop and soak overnight and don't give that carbon a chance to try and turn into diamond the next time you fire it.

First - that's a clear pic!

I'm going with carbon deposits. You can see them in the 'corners' where the land meets the groove.

Just ordered some flitz from the link provided here. Should be here in two days or so. I have an older boretech nylon brush, and I used the iosso with it and it cleaned it up a little bit, but it's still there. So I'll get some pictures soon. Ordered some boretech eliminator and C4 as well to try out.

Hahaha! I'm shooting it tomorrow, slight carbon build up be damned.

Im guessing, CLR.

Just a little carbon, is all. I work JB into a patch, wrap it around a worn brush and add a couple drops of Hoppes. Work it back and forth in that area. Make sure to put the bore guide on the rod first. Clean the bore guide really well after.

How many shots does it take for it to come back?

Hard to give an exact number. On a 30BR, a peek in there every hundred rounds or so will let you know what the individual barrel does. I have a new Bartlein that never seems to get any. But my cleaning approach is different from Kevin's.

My experience after 3000 rounds approximately, the barrel still shoots and looks relatively good but you get a flyer or unexplained shot. I have set it back and kept going another 1000 rounds,
While I have new one coming. I haven't experience getting some 5 to 7 thousand shot and being in the winner circle. But I do shoot at the higher velocity's. If your not getting 20 to 23 X's you will not be happy.
