Birchwood Barricade, Less Fouling?

[AZbpBurner]

It is true that Barricade dries and does not leave any oil in the bore; it protects with a dry, microscopic layer that doesn't affect fouling one way or the other.

Having used Barricade since back in the day when they called it 'Sheath', you're correct. I've never had any fouling issue, or effects indicating there was any measurable amount of petroleum product remaining in the bore to react with powder combustion.

I still swab the bore with an denatured alcohol patch prior to loading. :thumbsup:

You can't be faulted for that, smo. We all have our pet ways to use and protect our bp guns. IMO if it works, then it is good. And if it's good, don't change a thing. :thumbsup:

That's been my experience with Barricade for the past 8 years as well.
