Re: Some BP questions
Got an email from my Pedersoli dealer that my Frontier .50 is on track for delivery from Italy before Xmas...They are getting all their import/export stuff ready now.
I have seen a couple of videos of BP guys cleaning Triple 7 with a mix of Peroxide, Alcohol and Murphy's Oil Soap. They say it does a good job and no chance of rust. I dunno, the whole cleaning thing still has me perplexed. We'll see.

Re: Some BP questions
Na no sweat RR you will be fine just use the soap and hot water blow it dry then oil it with Ballistol or some non petroleum. Petrol oils and BP dont mix. Im sure you can get eexox or amsoil up there. Kroil works to used that in the Shiloh.

Re: Some BP questions
Sounds like my BP rifle is in. Might try to get up to Calgary this weekend and pick it up.

Re: Some BP questions
Sounds great RR and will be watching for a good range report on it! Ballistol is good stuff I use all the time.

Re: Some BP questions
Here are a couple of patches. Found them about 30 or so feet out in front of my shooting position. Not sure what they are supposed to look like but they look like the did what they were supposed to do. I am shooting 50 gn of Triple 7, and it seems to shoot quite well.
