Fire Lapping....
I've got a Remington Sendero in .300 ultra mag that I'm going to fire lap the barrel. What kinds of compounds are commonly used to fire lap a rifle? Which do you recommend and can you find these in most gun stores? Thanks!!

Only do it if your bore is seriousley hurting.

Unless your having serious accuracy problems, don't do it.
However, if you feel that you have to ... order a kit from Midway and by doing that you'll have instructions plus 3 different grit compounds.

The nature of your question indicates you have an accuracy problem. I suggest you start with a telephone call to Remington customer service and get suggestions from them before firelapping. Firelapping is usually one of the last resort processes for a barrel with serious troubles.
If you have to lap, do a hand lap first to see if that helps. With handlapping you have a lot of control over the degree.0 -
