Thats the reason i stopped using T7 and Remoil. I was lucky to off a second shot. Ive been using BH209 all last year and the MX products so i will give T7 a try again. Im curious to see if the combination of JB, range time and the MX conditioner will improve my previous results. 6-9 shots without a bad ring will be fine with me.

If it has not made it better i will try the BoreCoat on my MK85 and see what happens. My old ThunderHawk is much better now with T7 and after years of PRBs, Maxis and BoreButter so maybe there is something to "conditioning" a bore and "break in" but im still skeptical. The old Thunderhawk did get 2 MX treatments after i sold it to the new owner and showed him the correct cleaning procedure. The last time out we/he was getting at least 5 T7 shots without swabbing and groups were "ok".

That reminds me, all new Knight barrels have the BoreCoat and i bought a newer LRH barreled action. The bore is super shiny, i wonder if it had the coating because it felt really good for a "out of the box" barrel without using any JBs.
