Been using Wipe out for a long time and been happy with the results but I've heard great things about Bore tech eliminator.
Who's used both and which do you prefer? |
| I used Bore Tech myself and found it to work good enough. Haven't really messed around with bore solvents though to really form any opinion. I only used Hoppes, Sweet's, KG12, and Bore Tech. Out of those the Bore Tech and KG12 seem to work the best for me, especially when coupled with a nylon brush. Basically I put a wet patch in first, then use a nylon brush to clean it, then I keep using patches until they come out clean. I follow it up with a normal CLP or coat of oil of some sort. Seems to work really well in that regard. |

Quoted:
Wipe out gets stuff out of the barrel you never even knew was in there. Use it once a year on all my firearms. Plus it does it without a lot of wear and tear on your barrel. I know this is the AR forum but I'm a shooter of all disciplines, good bolt action target barrels are expensive. I'll bet over 50% get more wear from cleaning than shooting, even the guys that think they know what they are doing can be darn hard on them. |
| A lot of foaming bore cleaners don't recommend being used in guns with a gas tube, not sure if its because it can corrode if left long enough or if its a CYA type deal. Also as I learned today, beware of back pressure, I'm currently staring at foam clinging to my ceiling. |
