Thanks !20* change, nothing.
afterwards I had a tight spot in the barrel about half way...
My rifle groups just a little over an inch when it's clean , starts holding tight after about 4 rounds....yeah, you can definitely feel drag on the fouling. If the copper fouling isn't cleaned off the next rounds will just ride up over it instead of contacting the barrel fully, at least that's my theory. Others disagree and say you should have a layer of fouling sticking to the bore, but I never shoot more than 5-10 rounds without swabbing with sweet's. I still have a copper glazing on the bore but it's very thin.
Your eyes are good !Maybe my old eyes are missing it, but is there a distance (yards) these were shot at??
Your eyes are good !
My mistake , 100 yards
