Thread: 30-06 Akley improved load development

Well today was an exercise in frustration and futility erratic grouping, erratic velocity spreads, nothing worth looking at.
Got home and had a look down the barrel, now I've never copper cleaned this barrel but I'd suggest it's probably had somewhere between 200-300 rounds down the tube tops. I could see copper in the rifling at the muzzle, I gave it a quick 15min soak with bore tech copper remover and this pic was taken after that



Currently it's having a longer soak, hopefully I can get it cleared up. Then I'll load some ELDM's with my old recipe that always shot well in this rifle and see where we are at.....
