A never ending argument I reckon. I reckon if you can take out the residue from the powder then that has stopped the corrosion unless you have a humidity problem. I spray remoil on to my bore snake...

I found Lapua brass in 6.5x47 seemed to stretch more on first firing with a moderate load than expected, giving the impression of high pressure on extraction. This may have been behind your AR2209...

Not nearly as many as others, only a handful, I came to the .222 late. I have had two .222's over the years, a Winchester 70 and a Sako Vixen. The damage the bullet does is way out of proportion. I...
