Mini 14 cleaning question
I shoot my guns allot. The fouling is bad in my shotguns, and handguns. When I clean my Mini 14, I hardly get any deposits on my cleaning patches. I use Hoppes #9, and a copper brush, with cleaning patches. I am shooting South American Battlepack ammo, .223. Is it normal to have such a clean barrel? I shoot about 200 rounds a shooting session.

Sounds good to me.Your solvent is probably doing the job but if in doubt try Midways unisolve.
Best!!

Every so often you can run a non-embedding bore cleaner through it as well. Couldn't hurt!

I shoot that same ammo in my OLY PCR. It seems to be one of the cleanest ammos I've used. It's pretty accurate too.

Get some copper solvent, I recommend Hoppe's Bench Rest. Try it. Follow the instructions on the back.
If I'm wrong please correct me, I won't be offended.

rameleni1 - Welcome to the forum. I'm pretty new here myself. I read a lot but don't post too often. My company makes a gun cleaner that will get the copper and lead fouling out as well as the plastic from your shotguns. E-mail me and I'll be glad to send you a free tube. It's called Blue Wonder Gun Cleaner. If some of you other guys would like some also, I'll send some to the first 25 that e-mail. Guess I better do that - kinda like bringing a cookie to school...? My e-mail is kgibbs@novumsolutions.com 0 -
So far (6) have asked for the tube of cleaner so we have (19) left if anyone would like one. KG 0 -

Nice gesture, KG. Welcome aboard.

I can vouch for that blue wonder stuff. That is the absolute #1 best cleaner for gun exteriors, especially before a reblue job, or refinishing.
Hey kgnovum, do you think you could get me a copy of that instuction video for the blue wonder reblueing stuff? email me gunsmithlee@hotmail.com
If I'm wrong please correct me, I won't be offended.

cbxjeff - thanks for the welcome. I have been watching and reading the forum for several months and am now starting to post more. I am pretty active over at the G&A board also and check a few others from time to time. I only have so mcuh time and I've kind of settled into GunBroker and G&A forums. Lots of nice folks here and good info getting passed around. KG 0 -
YES, WELCOME ABOARD AND THANKS FOR THE SAMPLE. I AM SURE TO PUT IT TO GOOD USE WHEN I GET IT. GD (TOM) 0
