6 Dasher No-Barrel-Cleaning Test

[Carl Ross]

Any updates?

Coming soon, I’ve been otherwise focused but some matches are coming up so I’ll have more information in the next few weeks.

Cool stuff, thanks for sharing this test.

When the accuracy eventually and inevitably degrades, it will be interesting to see how/if cleaning it at that point brings it back, or if it happens when the barrel was done for anyway due to round count.

Took everything apart and reassembled. It seems the action screws were a bit loose despite using loktite initially, which I suspect lead to the vertical change in point of impact.

Shot a match the day after the above shooting, I'm sitting at 914 rounds currently. Didn't get to bedding it, may happen yet. Loaded up 400 rounds of brass for the third firing, so I should be set with it for 2-3 months depending on the match schedule.

Thanks for keeping this updated. It's a really interesting collection of data.
