Has anybody used Barrel finishing bullets? Are they worth it or are they junk?

Basically you load bullets coated with an abrasive. They progressively get finer in grit. I have been tempted to try them in my rifles to see if they will improve accuracy and maybe reduce any fouling.

Unless your barrel is as bad as mine was (snagged the patches on rifling when cleaning), I would just shoot more to smooth the barrel. The one that I did use the Final Finish product on turned out great. The barrel has always been extremely accurate, now it cleans easily as well.

I jus got done using the Final Finish on 3 guns and I'm really impressed. It makes a big difference to the gun.
