has anyone expierienced copper fouling with rem core loct factory loads.
i have a rem 700 sps in 7mm08, and bought 1 box of rem 140 grain bullets to see if my rifle would shoot them well and for brass to reload.
i cleaned the bore prior to going to range. i fired 15 rounds with decent accuracy. when i returned home i checked the bore and it looked like a copper mine inside.
ive used several brands of factory ammo with only minor traces of copper lefy in barrel that simply brushed out. are the jackets on core locts a softer alloy or did i get a bad lot number. any information will be helpful.
thank you all in afvance for yoyr insights.
