You just answered your own question. They said that you can never get the moly out of the bore. WHen you can get the same or better performance from a non-coated bullet then what is the benefit to using them? While they may not necessarily hurt your bore, I haven't seen anything that says it's good for it either.

As for your comments about them being mininformed: that is strictly your opinion and you don't do this for a living.

...and you should know from my other posts that I don't spread false information. I was just passing along what I was told. If you don't like well them I'm sorry.
Just because this person is a "Gunsmith" doesnt make him an xpert on Moly coating. The original question wasnt even about Moly, I figured someone with you indepth knowledge would have known that it was a different coating used on the Winchester Supreme ammo in question.

Having Moly in your barrel is not a bad thing. They've(Shooting Times Mag. Hornady)done a bunch of tests and in some rifles it helped accuracy and barrel life, some it really made no difference but I never read where it hurts a barrel to have Molyin it. The reports are all on the net and easy to find. I would just like to see some facts of why not to use Moly.

Its not that I don't like it but when someone tells me information I like to check it out myself before I just Parrot it along. Especially if it is incorrect. You yourself stated it doesn't hurt you bore so if there is a chance it helps, how can it be bad.

Lastly please don't assume you know or not what I do for a living.
Good for you. I haven't really looked into it. I stay faraway from Winchester ammo.Frankly I don't care as I doubt it is of any benefit asI said above. I wasn't trying to tell anyone it was the Gospel, I was throwing it out there. If you feel so strongly about it start posting these reports so the guy can get the correct information.
