I can't imagine cleaning a new barrel would hurt anything unless you're using a sandblaster... I've gotten away from using rods, I use bore snakes instead. Really like the ease of use!

    Would like to hear your process of using the snakes.

    Reason I ask is that I’d I use my snakes and make 1/2 dozen passes with it while at the range and then use my rod / jag combo it is pulling a lot more crud out of the barrel.

    The snakes I use you put your bore on the front end of the snake near the cleaning bristles and oil on the tail. I only pull it through 2 or 3 times and that's it. It's great for the range when I'm doing testing to clean between shots.
