Bayou Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 Getting close to ordering and was curious of those that shoot a XC if you shoot coated. I've never had a comp'd gun before and I load coated. If it will be a huge pain then I will get the P model as I don't want the headache. I'm aware of the regular cleaning for the carbon but was asking more about the coated/lead in the comp area.

PhotoRecon Posted May 24, 2022 Share Posted May 24, 2022 I shoot coated in my Czechmate and the comp builds up with what I think is a combination of lead, carbon and the coating. Time consuming to remove the fouling. Since my comp is easy to remove I soak it in Hoppes #9 and use Q tips to wipe the chamber once every 24 hours. After 5 to 6 days the comp is 100% clean. I clean every 250 rounds. Running jacketed through it might speed up the process. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bayou Posted May 26, 2022 Author Share Posted May 26, 2022 Let me ask it this way, what fps would it take to push a 124 to fully work the comp? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
valerko Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 so what does dirty comp affect ? Accuracy, effectivity or just OCD ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangerTrace Posted July 30, 2022 Share Posted July 30, 2022 If you let it go long enough, all three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
