Clean after powder change ?

[garandman]

When you are doing load testing and change propellants in a single range trip, do you clean after shooting the 1st propellant?

No

It depends on how many rounds I've shot.

20 rounds of 1 powder.... 18 of another...

If you are using a very clean burning powder>>>no. However, there are many powders that are pretty dang dirty. Using the dirty powders, I would get rid of the "loose carbon" out prior to a change..

I do and re-foul the barrel before testing the new load... It's personal preference and like above it depends on how many shots... If we're talking about just a few then probably not worth the effort...

Glen Zediker, in his book "Top Grade Ammo" recommended cleaning between.

Its like mixing waxes in a rimfire barrel to me- dont do it

Just the fact that your asking should tell you something.
