Moly removal

[tenring]

Have not coated bullets in several years; thinking of experimenting with Danzac again. But I may not continue very long. Removing moly from bullets is pretty straight forward - but what is the absolute best method to clean the barrel completely?

Here's one good method ...

for all types of cleaning plus the added benefit of a break-in suggestion by a Benchrest Hall-of-Fame inductee: http://benchrest.netfirms.com/Barrel Break-In.htm Art

I do not believe you will get full agreement on what is absolute best method to do anything here . We are a group of individuals with many any varied opinions.

Dawn dish soap will take it out very fast. Just put it on a nylon brush.

Okay............................what is the preferred method of removing moly from the bullets?

Thanks for the responses; will try Dawn. I tumble bullets in walnut hulls; then wash them with denatured alcohol, followed by overnight soaking with Cascade. Rinse in clear water and dry with towel. This process will remove about 75% of the coating, but they won't be full copper again.

Some nevr-dull in a large pill bottle with about 50 bullets, about 2 hours in a vibrating or rotary tumbler will remove most of the moly from bullets. The newer the nevr-dull the better job it does.
I've used both types of tumblers and think the rotary does a better job..
