I am wanting to test some loads for my AR tomorrow and I thought maybe I could get more accuracy from brass jagging my ARs like I do my 308 long range guns. So Wednesday I picked up a 22 cal brass jag and today I jagged my ARs with bore solvent.
While doing this I was wondering if it was really worth the extra labor to jag after every so many rounds? I bet not too many folks use a brass jag to clean their ARs, hell brass jags aren't even in military cleaning kits.
So my old routine has been Bore Snake after small range sessions and patch with solvent and brass brush after larger range sessions. Perhaps if I notice any difference I may incorporate jagging into my cleaning regime.
