Fingi Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 My GMR has had 4 o 5 cleanings in two years so far using a 30 cal rod carefully and double patches out front to prevent the rod from scratching/rubbing but i wannna play it safe and get a guide. Any suggestions as to which guide is the best for the GMR? JP reccomends theirs so im assuming its the Blue 30 cal one not the .223. Any other suggestion will be appreciated. J. Link to comment
tha1000 Posted March 26, 2019 Share Posted March 26, 2019 we shoot targets at an average of about 10 yards. I think you will be fine without a guide. I have never run anything other than a bore snake through mine. Link to comment
Fingi Posted March 26, 2019 Author Share Posted March 26, 2019 Its just that before i jumped into the PCC bandwagon all i had was high end bolt gun builds so you know... Nags me to say the least. But i see the 10yd comment Link to comment
TRUBL Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 It’s 9mm......use a bore snake Link to comment

Fingi Posted March 27, 2019 Author Share Posted March 27, 2019 Not sure if better. Just looking for sonething that works. Thanks Link to comment
Startingover Posted March 27, 2019 Share Posted March 27, 2019 Bore snake here also, but I definitely don't have the cleanest guns around. So my opinion isn't necessarily........... Link to comment
TNREDNECK Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 Bore snake ,clean gun after every event . Link to comment
Bwillis Posted March 28, 2019 Share Posted March 28, 2019 (edited) I’m in the boresnake and rarely to never clean my pcc. Before switching to jhp, I had to clean every 500ish rounds. My comp would get clogged and dot track would be awful. Now that I use jhp, I’ll clean if I get a malfuntion. Since switching to jhp I’m four matches (uml and uspsa), three range sessions and 1000-1500 deep. Friday to start my range day i rezeroed at 25yd with a red dot. I shot a dime size three shot group at 25yd. (2 shots 1 hole cleanest double I have evidence of) Sunday I had a uml match and was hitting 8”-10” plates at 100-140yd. Cleaning every shot imo is overrated Edited March 28, 2019 by Bwillis Link to comment
