Soooo..... I got out my borescope to look down my 308, and I figured, "What the heck, let me look down my brand new 30-06 tube." I kinda wish I wouldn't had after seeing what was in there.....
This is a 30-06 x-caliber 5R 1-8" twist barrel. It has 7 (yes, seven) 154 HHTs down the tube. I did not clean in between any of the shots. This picture was taken after I "cleaned" it. Anyone ever see this much copper fouling after less than 10 shots? I've spent the last hour scrubbing with a brass brush and barnes copper remover, butch's bore shine, hoppes and wipe-out, and I put the bore scope back in and it looks about the same.
