I have a 7mm/08 Sako Hunter, and I've never felt good about it. My groups aren't that great, and (don't know whether this is related or not) the bore has always collected a LOT of copper fouling in the grooves. Last night, after cleaning the grooves down to bare metal, one groove still had a noticeable deposit of copper, starting at the muzzle and going back about half an inch, where it faded away. My question is whether that could indicate some irregularity in the bore, maybe a burr on the crown or something else that's not right and is causing that little bit of copper to remain. Thanks.
