I am considering trying some moly coated match ammo in an already seasoned barrel. If for some reason performance is not what I want, what is the best way to clean the moly out of the bore so I can go back to shooting regular ammo. The ammo I have is Black Hills 175's and has the carnauba wax coating (which is what I am more concerned about cleaning-wise than the moly itself).
Thanks!

sounds like that would kill a barrel , chrome molly is what they make machine gun (M4 )chambers out of or line them with it.I am not sure about the product your talking about but why would you shoot a molly coated bullet? However I shoot a match bullet lubed in carnuba and Hopes #9 does the trick , it will melt it on contact almost. As far as molly I would just avoid it I think and go with another bullet unless your in serious competition and have a sponsor buying you barrels because it has to be rough on a factory barrel. But I would think it would take a Carbide or tungsten cleaning jag if I had to guess , I don't think your gona dissolve it and brass/bronze won't do it I'm afraid. "T"

Jeremy, Jack Belew (he works at UNA with you) used the moly coated bullets for a while when he was actively competing in highpower matches. I believe his thoughts on this subject would be most useful.
