What do you guys use? I used a coated .22 cal for my .223 and .308. When I clean my .308 it takes about 10 mins and the patches are squeaky clean. I clean my .223, however, and it takes over an hour and they patches never do come out perfectly clean. I use barnes Cr2.
However, I have come up with an idea of why its so hard to clean my .223. The rod I have is stainless steel coated with something, but on the jag the coating rubbed off, and its just exposed metal. Could the metal be rubbing against my bore and causing the black residue found on every single cleaning patch?
What kind of rods/jags do you guys use? SHould I buy a .17 cal rod and use it on my .223?
