djpaintlesThe Liquid car wax on cob media sounds like a good thing to try. Thanks.......DJ

Red Neck64I dip the bullets from a loaded round into Simonize car wax.Just a light coating will do.Rubbing alcohol on a patch will clean the wax from the bore after shooting.

KevinNYThis all sounds like more work than just letting a few more patches soak the bore for a bit.

RuffHewnI have nothing but positive results with moly.
I use the "pill bottle" method for coating bullets but use no BBs, only the bullets and SF moly from Rose Mill. I do not wax the bullets after moly as wax can foul the bore where moly will not bond to moly, only to metal.
My cleaning procedure is an oiled patch followed by 3 dry ones. The oil I currently use is Breakfree CLP, but have used Kroil, Outers gun oil, penetrating oil by CRC, and a generic light machine oil, and none really seemed superior to the others.
Editted to add:
I had over 4000 rds through my last barrel on my .300WSM. Cold bore shot was always within the group. I at times fired over 100 rds through that barrel and through the new one between cleanings with no degredation of accuracy.
