Guys, be honest. Is there any really logical reason to polish your rifle chamber, or is it that you've just run out of places to polish or stuff to do? I used to have a Son-in-Law (since replaced) that used to polish the bottoms of his shoes. To me, that's in line with polishing your rifle chamber. If you have an old Mosin, that's one thing, but any sort of new rifle shouldn't need chamber polishing.

Hmmm, that brings up another question. How many of you guys put your resizer case holders in your tumblers to get em all shined up? I honestly hope that nobody admits to that. And then there's a couple of you fellows that never thought of doing that - but probably will do it tomorrow. What did we call OCD before it was OCD?
