    a little question about powdercoating and microgroove rifling

    Hi Guys,
    i have a little question about powdercoating and microgroove rifling,
    how bad is the fouling in the barrel after shooting this stuff?
    i just recieved my custom reamer from ptg and custom reloading dies from hornady
    and i´m thinking of shooting lead thats been powdercoated..
    the gun that is the objekt for my projekt is a double rifle i built back in 2002-2003.
    att the moment it´s chambered for the .444 Marlin but i wanted something different

    cheers
    Roger

    PC works just fine through MG barrels. There is no fouling from the coating and the bores stay shiny. Rifles are Marlin's in 30-30, 308MX and 444M.

    I don't know how we ever shot maximum loads before P/C come along and saved us all. R5R

    What he said, no fouling. Blow out the burnt powder.
