I was wandering what most of you guys did as far as barrel cleaning while shooting for load development. I have always cleaned the barrel with copper solvent to a mirror finish then swabbed between groups with hoppes. This has always worked pretty well until recently. I have an Browning .270 that refuses to group at all when clean. I discovered this after getting frustrated at $150 worth of premium bullet testing and not finding a decent load. The last box of bullets (Swift Sciroccos) shot 2.5" groups at best. I decided that would have to be good enough so I loaded up the rest. I took it out the other day to get ready for "hog season" and started shooting. Groups started out at aound 2" but within 12-15 rounds tightened up to 3/4". Have I just been going about this the wrong way or what? Most of my other guns shoot great after being cleaned and two fouling shots but accuracy begins to fall off after 20-30 rounds. I assume every rifle has its own preferences but I've never encountered one that was this finicky. What are your thoughts ???
