    Bore patches absolutely will not come out clean :-(

    What seems to make the most difference between my rifles is whether the bore is lapped of production. My Bartleins clean up with Hoppes and a couple of patches on a jag. The AAC SD takes a little more work.

    Suppressed load development question

    I say maybe. It's just dynamics of deformable bodies. A MTU contour barrel and a titanium can shouldn't change much. I think you need to do OCW for both.

    Will the Butler Creek Bikini scope cover as shown here fit the objective on a PST 6-24 X 50. Does anyone know if the length is OK. General quality? I can't use the Vortex scope cover b/c the gap between barrel and OB bell is too narrow for the big thick cap.
