m gardner Report post Posted February 9, 2008 I used them in a 270 for awhile just for something different to do. I found that if I cleaned the barrel down to bare metal first they shot well. I found that Kroil and a brush worked well for cleaning tha Moly out of the barrel afterwards. There were horror stories of the Moly trapping moisture against the barrel metal and ruining barrels, but I always clean mine after shooting anyways so I can't report on that. All I noticed about reloading was that the moly scrapped off if you didn't have a good chamfer on the case neck. Mark Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mark Mark I am confused a little wouldn't you want some of the moly to stay ti fill any voids or such to improve the barrel AzTrapper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
