Thanks guys! you all answeredgreat. After learning of sweets and seeing the results of it I understand copper fouling, I think. Learning center fire shooting has been a eye opener. I would hate to see whatsweets would look like if ran down my old 22 mag!
right after getting out the copper, I use brake cleaner to get out all the sweets, and immediately oil the barrel.
Try that wipeout too. It has a rust prohibiting agent in it, and you can leave it in the barrel litterly for days. Never rust or pitting. The ammonia in sweets does not pit itself, but it does take the gun barrel down to bare metal and is hydroscopic which will pit the barrel.
