any evidence of Moly reducing throat errosion ??
Has aynone on this forum ever seen or expeienced "reduced throat errosion rate" due to shooting Moly coated bullets ?

Ive got one rifle, a 240 Gibbs, thats a barrel burner for sure. I've been coating all the bullets for it with moly, not really for velocity or group improvements but on the hope that it would slow down the throat errosion some. At the time it seemed "Logical" that it probably would. A little bit of moly applied to the throat with every shot would give a coating that the flame would need to burn through before getting to the metal. Sounded logical to me at the time. Now I'm haveing second thought's.

So has anyone ever seen real evidence of this actually occuring?

It would be extremely unlikely that anyone could link any differences of throat erosion to Molycoating.

I'd be happy to admit my error if someone can do it.
