Modern cartridges are increasingly challenging classic designs by focusing on high Ballistic Coefficient (BC) bullets and faster twist rates for improved long-range accuracy. While classics like the .270 Win and .300 Win Mag retain popularity due to history and availability, newer cartridges like the 7mm PRC and 6.5 Creedmoor are gaining significant traction. The future trend points towards higher pressure ammunition for enhanced performance in shorter barrels.
This guide details a deep cleaning process for bolt-action rifles experiencing accuracy degradation, inspired by Ron Spomer's insights. It covers identifying the problem, understanding the theory behind cleaning for different bullet types, performing a baseline test, executing a thorough cleaning with specific tools like a borescope, and re-testing for improved accuracy. The process emphasizes removing all fouling to restore sub-MOA performance.
