BP type fouling

RE: BP type fouling
These last few weeks I been shooting up all of my loaded odds and ends I have for trigger time. Some are old and some test loads from last summer I didn't shoot up.
When you use a no lube load you have to change your wiping routine. One damp and one dry will not do the job. The fouling will build up and accuracy goes to hell. I don't care who's powder you use.
Yesterday I emptied 65 .44-100 rounds I had loaded with 1.5 Swiss that is a better then a 2 MOA or better load for this rifle but wiping one damp one dry after 15 shots accuracy started to open very wide some went out to the 7 ring on a SR target. After the wiping I looked down the bore and it looked like a Dalmatians dog fur and the final cleaning it took 9 wet patches before they came out clean enough to be able to use dry patches and oil. That is a bunch more then what it takes when using a lube wad in the load.
You have to change things with the wiping routine if your not using lube.
The reason a dog has so many friends is because he wags his tail instead of his tongue.
