Correct Patrick. I was just stating the obvious. The link Littlelebowski posted took you to a bunch of BR barrel makers and competitiors and they were chiming in with their recommended cleaning regimen. My point was, even if occasional use of an abrasive is used to clean copper, even if the abrasive results in a slight wear on the barrel, our crowd can tolerate a slight accuracy degradation from any supposed wear whereas a BR shooter cannot. Once their barrels start grouping in the .3s routinely, it's shot. We'd rejoice at that level, and if our 1.4 MOA shooter degraded to a 1.7 MOA shooter, we wouldn't sweat it.
