Hey Bronko,

It was a dark gray look. Maybe that was the brush and Hopps 9 in my blue barrel? Looks like you and Breech got me thinking. It may not be fouled. I just thought it was because after using the brush I could not seem to get a clean swab.

I clean my gun very well, so this did bother me. I was almost thinking of going back to 777 because it seems BH 209 takes me just as long to clean. Two swabs of H9 and a few clean swabs have never cleaned my barrel.

It always takes me as long as it did with 777. The only reasons I use BH 209 is because I do not have to swab and the plug comes out so easy...
