Quoted: 1) Where do you notice the wear? 2) Does the Crown look "Perfect"? 3) Is the barrel perfectly clean? Any Copper? 4) What do you use to lube the gun? 5) How do you measure Accuracy? 6) What ammo are you using to measure accuracy? Remington? 6) "Before" and "After" group size and at what range? 7) How is your lock-up? With slide closed, if you push on the top of the barrel at the chamber, is there ANY movement? 8) Are your sights tight?

Wear is just lands are not very high, kinda smooth.
The crown looks fine.
I keep it clean & no copper build up noticed.
I use Break Free to clean & lube in general with some Tetra gun grease in key areas like slide. Also some of Butch's bore shine in bore
I measure accuracy in that my 11 yard groups have opened up several inches compared to last year.
I use Winchester range ammo (bought a bunch of it). Also some other factory loads. But the WIn shot good for me last year & I still have about 500 rounds left.
No moevement in barrel when slide is locked.
Yes I checked sights they are locked in position they ahave always been, tight.
Oh, goup size used to be around 2" - 3" for me quick firing from a standing position. They seem to be more like 4" - 6" now.
Maybe I'm just falling off, but I've noticed this on last 3 range trips.
Thanks,
HS
