Like cloudspeak said MAKE SURE the copper scrubbie isnt just copper coated. Kryoil is good too.
bingo
I just picked up a copper choreboy tonight. Will check with magnet. What about stainless steel? I use a stainless choreboy during my home brew process.
Copper is a softer metal than your steel barrel and will not scratch yours. Stainless is a mixture of chrome and steel so is much harder and will scour out your barrel.
roger that. Also, the copper choreboy is actually copper clad steel. Wouldn't have ever noticed the difference if it weren't for the smart people on this board. Thanks for all the help.
All:
Range report.
1. Cleaned the barrel with a choreboy of the copper variety.
2. Took the easy way out and lubed the nose of 50 completed bullets.
3. alternated the bullets in the mag with unlubed bullets and fired about 80 total rounds.
4. Checked regularly, no leading
I will lube the rest of the batch similarly until gone. Once done, will reload for the new lone wolf barrel that I have waiting for when these are done.
Thanks again for all the help.
