with powerbelts did you ever problems with copper fouling? My accuracy went to heck, I used to shoot 150 grains 777 and 195 powerbelts. Fantastic accuracy(3-4" at 200 yards, really). I havent shot much the last couple of years as my acc went way downhill. So I started over from scratch with 777 grain wise. It never dawned on me until a c few months ago maybe it was copper fouling. So I picked up a copper fouling cleaner. And scrubbed, and scrubbed,aned scrubbed. I kept getting the blue foam, so I kept scrubbing. I was a very long couple nights before I got clean foam out of it. I have yet to shoot it to check accuracy.

Does this make sense? Or am I just pipedreaming?
