I'll put this here for max exposure.
A good friend of my brother is rather dismayed. A preventable bummer.
He has been doing some competitive longer range shooting. The rifle is an Accuracy International in 6.5 x 47. It has 2000 rounds through it.
Up front,I'll say it seems he did something unfortunate.This is NOT a comment on Accuracy International rifles or the 6.5x47 round.
The borescope shows an alligator skin throat. He is meticulous.I learned he uses brake cleaner in his bore.
I recommend that anyone interested go here:
http://www.schuemann.com/Documentation.aspx
Or to the Schuemann barrels website,then to documentation.
Read the articles on barrel cleaning,and barrel steel.
Take it for what it is worth. I'm not going to argue about it,do whatever makes you happy.
You can put whatever you want in your barrel.
(Spoiler,type 416 R barrel steel is quite susceptible to chemical damage. Do not switch around on bore cleaning chemicals,do not,for example ,use Sweets followed by another bore cleaner,and do not put chlorinated hydrocarbons ,either by themselves or particularly in combination with other bore cleaning products .They even say "Don't use Butches this month,then something else next month You read,and decide. )
