Hey Wildcat,

I used Flitz metal polish for my barrel and it does a nice job of polishing the bore. Just make sure the transfer port is clear of polish residue after your done. It's probably best to remove the barrel from the rifle if you want do this job right. Not sure about Brasso doing a good job polishing the bore. I know that Greg Davis says not to use JB Bore Paste but I'm not sure why he has a problem with it. If you use it sparely with a couple of passes thru the bore I can't see where it would cause a problem. Some guys use a cleaning pellet with JB bore paste to clean up their barrels so I guess the question is why not use it??
