Man I'm glad you said something Steve, what kind of problems did you have. I was about to buy one. BTW I love your site.

If it were such a great technology, there would have been no need for models II and III.

In any event, the Outers system works, but with several drawbacks. There is a risk of frosting your barrel if you do not follow the directions. You still must remove powder fouling in order to expose the copper to the chemicals. If you gotta scrub your barrel anyhow, it simply becomes another timely, expensive, and messy step. It ain�t no shortcut and you stand a chance of damaging your barrel - what�s the point.

At the end of the day, I have yet to find a barrel that could not be quickly and safely cleaned with a little JB and Sweets. Spend your money on top quality cleaning tools and you will save yourself a lot of grief.

It works but like others said it may not be necessary. I have only one gun that I really need it on. It is a 25-06 and after about 12 shots it is heavily plated with copper. It will not shoot small groups again until it is clean. It takes about 4 hours with the foul out III to get all the copper out. Then it will shoot small groups again. It may be just as easy to fill the bore with amonia and let it set awhile. I haven't tried that yet. I've never had a problem with any of my other rifles fouling this bad and never use it on them.

Gustavo - Correction - There is no thing as an "unnecessary gadget" when it comes to shooting. It's just that the Foulout is at the bottom of the necessary list. Just above that are Weatherby Rifles and 4-wheel drive air-conditioned gun cases!

Just below the foul out kit on the unnecessary gagets list are barnes x bullets.
