I have read quite a bit about the cleaning of copper out of the bores. Some say its not necessary to remove it unless you see a huge decrease in accuracy. I dont run copper cleaner thru mine every time I shoot the copper plated bullets. I really dont see much change in how they shoot. Im sure if there was a heavy build up in the bore it would change things but I havent ever seen it. I have gotten away from lead cast because they are just dirtier than the copper plated. Just a thought. Not trying to change the way you do your cleaning. Al
