Crud Ring...
OK, I'll take a shot at this... (pun intended!) :wink:
If it was me, I'd spend the $$ & efforts using a wet patch (use both sides) and then a dry patch between every shot at the range or in the woods.
From what I've read on this forum, a primer change may help reduce the dreaded "777 Crud Ring". But knocking it down on each shot by patching it out is the best bet -- other than switching to BH209, which I've yet to do.
Other thoughts/opinions?
Tight groups!

No, I coated one .50 T/C barrel and the crub ring was still there but not as
difficult to break thru as before. There was a build-up but it felt less of a build-up by the ramrod pressure than before the ultra bore coating was done.
The pain in the a** in shooting the 30 shots to "Cure" the ultra bore coat into the bore.
I did not treat the barrel for the crud ring, I treated the barrel to protect it from the corrosion of 777.
Ultra bore coat works and I have done several barrels both ML and centerfire. My Reminton R-15 camo rarely has any copper build up.

yes me ....save your money ..T7 = CRUDE RING
Thanks for the replies. I think I'll pass on the UBC. I bought a shoping cart of Triple 7, FFFg at a Walmar clearance 2 years ago. The T7 shoots really well if I patch with alcohol ever shot-POA! I've been using Blackhorn to hunt with. I know about the low powered primers, but want to avoid complications if possible.
I have a new TC pro hunter and am considering treating the barrel with ultra coat and using BH-209 exclusively. I know this may be overkill but want to spend my time hunting and shooting not swabbing and cleaning.
I consider it an investment and worth the time and money for long term. Has anyone else done this and willit actually take 30 shots to cure?
With respect,
