Doesn't do a cold/clean flyer - I've never not found a sub moa load for it in over 5 different projectiles including the finiky LRAB - only ever used factory ammo in it once and that was for shooting her in - and even that shot sub moa after 2 sighters to get it on paper. So I've come to the conclusion that we/people get antsy about having copper showing in our barrels and can chase tales all day long - yet if it shots then why worry?
    This guy crafty told me my barrel is real bad and needs a good cleaning to remove copper Still I out shot tikkas with it
    VIVA LA HOWA
