    The worst carbon fouling I have experienced from rifles chambered in the 223 Remington and 308 Winchester occurred with ammos I handloaded using Hodgdon CFE 223 powder. The bismuth/tin dioxide added to the powder do reduce copper fouling, but it results in excess carbon fouling that is almost baked into the surface of the lands and groove in the barrel. No matter how many wet/dry cleaning patch I ran through the barrel the carbon residue would not go away. I even scrubbed the bore with JB Bore Pass and CLR but the barrel would still produced dark wet and dry cleaning patch afterward. Out of desperation, I ran several cleaning patches wetted with Chevron Techron Concentrated Plus fuel injector cleaner. I let it cleaner soak in the bore overnight and all the carbon residue were finally cleaned out.

    You are going to think I am crazy but after spending months trying to get down to bare metal in my #1 gun I have to say this. I just passed on my C96 Borchardt pistol to Bonham's Auction so they could sell it. I bought it 15 years ago and cleaned it using a Remington paste product (Remclean?) I did not own a borescope at the time but the bore looked very nice and shiny. The night before the Rep came to give a valuation on the gun, I decided to run a borescope through it. Never do this on an antique. I saw a lot of fouling. I used JB, then Iosso paste. After I got yellow, green (very common on WW1 and older guns due to lacquer) I got clean patches. I eagerly ran the borescope down the barrel again and saw carbon. Lots of thick patches with some chunks broken off. I had never seen so much carbon in a barrel. Due to the value of this thing, and my fear of successfully getting it apart and back together before the next morning, I gave up. The Rep came the next day and I showed him the pistol and told him about the carbon in the barrel. He had a look with the borescope and said 'this is on top of the rifling, someone fired this pistol with a lot of oil in the barrel'. Now the 7.65x26 Borchardt cartridge runs around 1350 fps. Low by our standards but hot for the time. Nobody put a lot of rounds through these guns unless they had no choice. Could the Bonham's Rep have something? He has looked at a lot of different guns over the last few decades. Could some of our carbon problems be caused by some kind of residue left in the bore after cleaning? I have been watching people clean carbon steel and cast iron frying pans. Oil is a key component to the carbon build up on these pans. Oil overheats and carbonizes or at least contributes to the carbonization process.

    I just discovered some heavy carbon fouling in a stainless sako barrel that I thought was clean… my new teslong revealed heavy carbon in the first half of the barrel… way more than you illustrate in this video… like way…
    I did the following:
    1) Applied patch out and accelerator via patch and plastic brush… let soak overnight. Patched out next day… brown patch. Borescope revealed a small reduction.
    2) Scrubbed with Kroil and JB bore paste on felt plugs, twice… around 60 passes total… reinspected… probably removed 50%
    3) Went at it with alternating CLR patches and bronze brushing… probably 5 times each… reinspected…. Now that really made a big difference!
    4) did JB paste again to get the final bits, then was done.
    The borescope is a dramatic game changer… now i can clean based on what I see. Wow.

    JB bore paste applied to a Kroil soaked patch or pellet for tough carbon deposits has worked great for me. now that i have all my barrels “clean” i use bore-tech c4 in the chamber for the carbon ring after each trip to the range. thorough cleaning every 5-600 rounds. great video! cheers

    I tumbled my rimfire silencer baffles for 3 hours with Dawn, a dash of lemishine and stainless pins. Still had hard carbon deposits. Dipped baffle in CLR for 5 minutes and carbon wiped right off. I’m not an FClass shooter but I know CLE breaks down hard carbon deposits on stainless steel.

  • @davidunderwood3605
    @davidunderwood3605 2 года назад +5

    This is first time I have watched you. Informative. I will say that J B bore paste is a great product when used to polish out a less expensive barrel. One saturated patch using over a bore squeegee or a very tight jag with about 200 combination forward/backwards strokes stopping just before the crown and edge of the where the lands start from the chamber to polish out imperfections and remove burs. It also make for easier cleaning in the future. Brownells tech support taught me this a long time ago. This is close to what a good barrel company does when hand lapping a barrel. They will use progressively smaller grits. JB is none embedding and by not changing the patch it'll automatically reduce the size of the grit. I polished out a Savage 300 win mag barrel that was close to new. 40 rounds. It was a chore because of tool marks. After the polish job, it gained 17 fps with the same factory ammunition, same lot #, and was far easier to clean and the groups tightened up by .25 inch's at 100 yards up to 400 yards.

  • @rudolphferdinand3634
    @rudolphferdinand3634 2 года назад +1

    I always wanted a borescope, but due to the extreme price, no way, but Teslong
    is now at home, and placed an order with Brownell's bore brushes 264 and 8mm.
    Additional: Teslong bore scope worth every penny. I have looked at every rifle bore, and here is what I have; a 1995 Winchester Model 70 in 30-06, the bore condition like a rifle neglected by many years; it is what Winchester used for rifle barrel material. I have a 1903 Springfield made in April 1943, clean bore. Another rifle bore looked at Savage 110 Tactical in 308W chattering marks deeply; the worse that I have ever seen, replaced with a Criterion barrel 308W 22”. Remington 700 in 30-06 chattering mark barely visible. Thank you.

    Free All is not available where I am in Australia so I've been pouring over the MSDS and SDS for any penetrating fluids that I can get. None of them have the same ingredients as Free All.
    For now the best product I've used to date is the Bore Tech C4 carbon eliminator. It does a great job. I also started testing the Slip 2000 carbon remover. No conclusive results with that yet.

  • @buckshotaaa
    @buckshotaaa Год назад +1

    I love a good bore cleaning presentation and yours is way up there. I recently bought a Teslong borescope and it sure is an eye opener seeing the results. What i thought were clean bores were far from that with the bore scope.
    I'm not quite so paranoid now as i was when i first used it and find it a fantastic addition to my maintenance equipment.
    I have to tell myself not to take too much notice of those massive pieces of debris that aren't present without the borescope view!😁

  • @ToadleyBrowne
    @ToadleyBrowne 3 года назад +2

    The art of bore cleaning is keeping in mind what happens when the next round is fired. There are areas of the bore that may not need to be completely perfect. After watching part 1 and a day in with Eliminator I tried CLR for about 10 minute soak as well with minimal results. Wanted to make sure to get it all out so I then just used Hoppes patch to rinse. The first patch came out black like yours did with Hoppes and I was thinking that it was interesting as well.

I have been using Kroil for years along with JB’s and it seems to do the job.

    Keith, Free All works great, but my buddy had some get on his bedding job and turned it to mush. Bedding material was from Brownells. He was using a universal bore guide rather than a o -ring unit like a Possum. That's what I use and no issues. I will continue to use Free All as it works great but thought I'd share this info.

    That said I was doing some digging and came across Carbon-off from Discovery products. Their data states that this is safe for all metals, including aluminum. Developed for use by the restaurant industry. May be something that could help in your search for a complete carbon cleaner

  • @mickroberts5166
    @mickroberts5166 3 года назад +2

    Why the abrasives when you can use CLR and similar to remove carbon without removing steel? Last stubborn deposits are removed with the CLR and a brush ... very effective but the idea is to let the chemicals do the work instead of brushes and abrasives

  • @markthegunplumber8376
    @markthegunplumber8376 2 года назад

    Bullet Central sells a product called Thorro Clean. Squirt it on a bronze bruch and it does the job and fast. Never had any luck with the CLR myself either. Hell, in a pinch Mothers Mag cleaner on a bronze brush works pretty good. JB Bore Bright works really good as well.

  • @chrisgunsandguitars1403
    @chrisgunsandguitars1403 Год назад

    CLR is basically fine with stainless barrels. With other types of metal barrels….use at your own risk. Free-All may be a good product, but I can’t see it being any better than Kroil. I use nylon brushes because they can be reversed in the barrel without damage (although I rarely do that), but mostly to eliminate false positives for copper. Cleaning a barrel very thoroughly is fine. Just remember that it will probably take 5 shots to get the barrel to shoot well again as most clean/cold barrels don’t shoot to last point of aim. Lots of factory ammo is $3-$5 a round these days so each shooter has to decide what is best for them.

    I've spent a lot of hours trying to find a chemical which dissolves carbon & so far, most of the information I've found states that carbon is resistant to most chemicals we'd want to put anywhere near our rifles.
    I've looked into all the chemicals in CLR & there's nothing in it which attacks carbon itself but, I know CLR removed a lot of black stuff from my barrel when I tried it but I don't have a borescope to confirm the extent of the removal.

      I’ve used used Kriol for years and have been very impressed with the results. I have not confirmed with bore scope yet but will soon. I routinely clean initially at the range with Hoppes or Bore Tech Eliminator or Butches (whatever I have available to clean carbon etc) . Repeat if necessary until patches are clean . Then I will soak the barrel overnight or so . Then repatch with Kroil . Run a brush, brass seems more effective, one way only, just a few strokes. You won’t believe how much junk you will get from what appeared to be a clean barrel. No question about safety of Kroil to the barrel.

    Is a bit of hard carbon harmful for accuracy?

    The carbon in the grooves is lower then the projectile’s path, meaning it won’t touch the projectile…

    What’s the final assessment on the best way to remove hard carbon from a chrome lined rifle barrel? Every effort still produces black patches and my bore scope shows a lot of carbon in the grooves. The rifle is an AR15-SP1 and was purchased used with a 1973 manufacturing date. The rifle has sentimental value so I’m trying to keep it as original as possible. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

      Yep. Haven’t had the need to do it yet, but I’m going to trust Erik Cortina and Speedy over randos in the comments here. I don’t want to try CLR on my blued barrels, but I’d do it with a stainless one.

    Can Free-All be used on carbon steel barrels?

    Try this stuff called " zap ox" metal cleaner works on nasty injection molds and you dont need gloves.

      Free-All does and amazing job with a bronze brush.

    Keith, great info as usual. Do you think Kroil would be a good substitute for Free-All?

    • @winninginthewind
      @winninginthewind  3 года назад +5

      I honestly don't know. I've used Kroil for years as a post-cleaning treatment, but never for cleaning. I guess I can give it a try when I get another barrel dirty. I cleaned everything I have doing this series.

    No kidding, I'll never use CLR again. If you get any of that junk on bluing it's toast

      LOL its safe only on stainless barrels although I have been using it on carbon barrels for years as well ... you just need to be very careful

    how does free all react to polymer frames and black slides? will it mess them up if it gets on there or no?

    • @MrConceito
      @MrConceito Год назад

      It discolored my black nitride finish after leaving it for 30 minutes. Less so if cut 1:1 with water but still softened up the carbon.

  • @beestoe993

    I sure wouldn't use CLR in my bore. All that acid in it is a great rust accelerator.

    • @tomreynolds6466
      @tomreynolds6466 3 года назад +1

      It’s not a bore cleaner. It’s a spray oil you find in an automotive store.

  • @sahmadi1000
    @sahmadi1000 Год назад

    Bronze brushes are a problem by themself. Bronze is mostly copper so you are adding a new variable. Your patch could come out green because of the bronze. I wish there was a hard enough brush that was unbiased.

      Nope. I've used it in the past. Works about as good as any other ammonia based cleaner.

    Your process for all products should have been the same using a brush with one product is not a good way to test every product shoul be used the same

    All polish goes black when you rub metal. That's not carbon, it's the rubbed polish.
