Re: Is this a proper way to develop a load? agreed on the cleaning part...I said sub moa all day....not 1/2 moa...anyway it was a figure of speech... are you saying that the frequency of firing each round should be separated from "load development"?...I think it should be part of it as in the...

Re: Is this a proper way to develop a load? just finished reading Newberry's article on "optimal charge weight" and it brought to mind a couple of questions: 1. Newberry suggests "cleaning the barrel midway through the load develoment process" which is subjective depending on how many rounds...

Re: cleaning after shooting cupro-nickel bullets I try not to use a bore brush and if I do, it's a nylon one. This bore tech brand seems to be very effective in removing copper fouling without having to use a brush. I verified it by using a "foul out" after cleaning my AR with boretech and...

Re: cleaning after shooting cupro-nickel bullets that's exactly the "problem"...the articles I managed to scrounge up indicated that the copper was removed but left the nickel behind? I am guessing that the copper solvent dissolves the copper but not the nickel and subsequently the nickel is...
