Dirty 4831SC

[Terry]

I'm shooting 4831SC in a .284 Shehane and I have never seen a barrel so dirty. The muzzle break, crown and last 2" of the barrel are covered in soot. Is this common? I have shot loads from 54 to 57 grains. All are dirty.

Common in my stainless 243AI and stainless 270. Shoots well though so I put up with it.

It shoots dirty in my 260 as well. It shoots well so I put up with it too.
