Simple, yet effective

The folks that mention to make sure you know your actual bore diameter, compared to the actual diameter of the bullets your shooting are making a very valid and important point.

Firearm manufactures produce barrel's that are best described as, different.

So, you need to slug the barrel.

As a competitive shooter, who has put thousands of lead rounds through various barrels, I'm going to fall back on my Dad's method.

When your done shooting, clean your gun. If you notice leading, go to the range, and fire max pressure jacketed bullets through the gun. Then clean it.

I have found that method works great, and has not effected accuracy IN HANDGUNS ! I don't recommend that for rifles.
