    Mystery black stuff in barrel

    not everybody shoots em wide ass open at 3500+ fps as far as comparing it to a 243 Factory ammo is the same velocity. Your logic can be used to anything if you use it too hard

    Mystery black stuff in barrel

    Hell I’m done shooting it. I agree with that. Question is is that barrel shot out with heat cracks or is the some moly from bullets. I got a lot of loaded ammo from the guys estate that had moly coated bullets. I heard that stuff is impossible to get out of a barrel.

    Mystery black stuff in barrel

    OK so now I have cleaned it very good and it will shoot the first 3-4 shots VERY well. Were talking 1/4" groups at 100 yds. ( I did this 3 times over 4 days) Then it starts slinging 3"+ groups. Dosent matter what bullet weight or powder. So then I borrowed a Teslong Borscope and it looks...

    Mystery black stuff in barrel

    If it is there’s a lot of it in there. Why does it shoot dime groups when it’s clean and 3”+ after 6-7 shots? That’s got me baffled. I have never seen that more like just the opposite in my other guns.

    So I purchased a used gun from an old retired Border patrol agents estate. REM 700, 6mm Remington. I was able to purchase quite a bit of his reloaded ammunition and have ran across a few issues, but the main thing is the gun was filthy when I got it. I’ve run wipe out with the Excelerator...

    Anybody care to take a stab at the year of manufacture on this Remington 700 6mm rem? I am totally confused. There’s four digits in one of them I can’t really make out.
