Bore Cleaning Question
Alright, I've never owned a brand new centerfire rifle before, so I want to make sure Itreatthe barrelright on the one I just bought. I know what break in method I'm going to use, but so far I've just been cleaning the gun in preparation.I haven't fired a round yet, and want to make sure the bore is clean before I do. The question is, how clean is clean? I spent severalhoursswabbing and brushing the bore the other night. I got it to a point that solvent soaked patches will come out clean, but if you let some solvent sit in the barrel for 10-15 minutes and then scrub it with awire brush, the next few patchesare still really dirty with signs of copper.Should I keep trying to get the barrel clean, or will it just not get truly clean?
