Default Bore polish

Have the various bore polishing compounds fallen prey to the paper pushers?
Or are they just not popular any more? All the catalog outfits say 'discontinued'.

Catalogs can't really "discontinue" a product. That is for manufacturers to decide. Look to.the manufacturers of the product.

I video recorded all of my Highpower Rifle matches. Pretty soon I am going to watch them all in reverse order so that I can watch those F Class guys GO HOME and leave us alone so that we can shoot Highpower Rifle.

For me at least, JB is a must have cleaning product. Brownell bought the rights to the stuff a few years back. Seems to be available at all shooting suppliers.

Got a bad shooting rifle? First trick is JB it clean then check it out.

I agree with pertnear. Still today, there are a lot of people who don't know how to clean a rifle bl. Many still think some HD30 wgt oil on a rag is good'nough.

I also wonder about many in todays shooting society. The must not have been brought up by parents or a relative that taught they safe gun handling, shooting and the fact, you must clean them after shooting, and how too do it.
They also must not read any magazines or reloading manuals that very often give instructions on how to clean firearms either.
I often wonder how they even learned what a cleaning rod and patches were for and what the multitude of cleaning solvents are sitting on the shelves in the gun stores.
And they sure don't google up information regarding it on the internet either appearantly..

I agree, Bill. for many, it's one or two pulls with a bore snake - THERE, done.

Would you be referring to "IOSSO"?

Think so Eddie, and there is also "Thoroughclean" sold by Bullet Central, which is IOSSO blended with a solvent. Works quite well.

My gunsmith loves bore snakes, gets rifles in regularly with snakes stuck. Minimum 50.00 to remove/clean.
