Dyna-Bore Coat

Jordan, here is what they sent me today

Dave,



What quantities of the bore coat are you interested in? We have a retail package of the bore coat but it is my understanding that the packaging is required to be in both English and French. We currently do not have this. We can however ship internationally. We do not have a dealer in Canada but have been researching the options on the bi-lingual packaging.



Let me know what your needs are as far as this product and I will assist in getting the information for you.



Warmest Regards,
######X ######X
 
Richard echoes exactly my thoughts.... I have a healthy dose of skepticism

I was skeptical about it when I first heard about it, still am actually. But like I said, I have read nothing but positive reviews on it and some from some very well known shooters.

I would like to try it and form my own opinion of it before jumping to conclusions.
 
It’s funny how things work out sometimes. I just got a surprise phone call from Doug Burche at Dynamic Finishes this morning. He is able to get me an initial shipment of various products ranging from Bore coat to Gun shield, and it will arrive in time for the Calgary gun show during the Easter weekend! I should have enough now to install Bore coat in the remaining 1 or 2 of my rifles that haven’t yet been done ;) I’m also excited to try Gun shield and test it out for myself.
 
When I posted this I was looking for a place to buy it, that's it. I wasn't looking for opinions from guys who have never used the product and I wasn't trying to convince anyone to use or try it. I would never do so without first hand experience.

Sorry CD, I wasn't trying to start anything. I was just looking for more information on the stuff such as links to research or other backup proof that it actually works. This is CGN afterall and it would be a damn shame if a simple question thread doesn't get derailed into a locked thread. :D

Now, are you guys using this in factory barrels or is this stuff going into Lapped Match Grade Barrels? I could see using a plethora of materials to help with a factory offering right up to fire lapping with Tubb's system to smooth things out.


Jordan: My match barrels go 350+ rounds before groups start to open up (to be honest I have never actually let the barrel go to the point where groups open up, but I have gone up to 350 rounds without cleaning while winning matches with the barrel).
 
Cool! Sounds like a great barrel :) I'm a curious person, so naturally I wonder how long it would go if it was UBC'd.

I have used UBC only in factory barrels up to this point. The reasons I use it are:

- Extended accurate shooting intervals between cleanings. We are lining the bore with a ceramic coating, which is quite similar to using a non-stick coating on your pots and pans. It prevents copper and powder fouling from adhering to the bore. Some barrels can go a long time between cleanings simply because they have lapped and polished surfaces in the bore, so these barrels might not benefit much from the bore imperfection-filling characteristics of UBC, but I've never seen a case where the slick ceramic coating didn't at least help somewhat because it is a less adhesive surface than barrel steel. You can use moly'd bullets and naked bullets interchangeably for this reason- neither moly nor fouling sticks to UBC very well. There have been many people who have used UBC in match-grade barrels, and as I say, I have yet to see a non-positive review (lots of reviews available if you search 24hour).

- This is purely anecdotal, since the experimentation is still underway on this point, but the ceramic coating should provide some resistance to throat erosion, since it stands in between the barrel steel and the bullet/hot gas flame front.

- UBC provides corrosion protection to the bore. Lining the bore with a ceramic coating prevents the steel from being affected by moisture, humidity, etc. It's nice to not worry about rusting or pitting in the bore being caused by corrosion. If a guy uses UBC in combination with UGS, or one of the paint-on coatings like Cerakote, Duracote, etc, for the exterior metal surfaces, the only part of the gun not coated would be the chamber itself. A guy can use proper oiling techniques and prudent care to mitigate this problem without coatings, but this stuff adds a little peace of mind when you don't take as much time as you probably should to take care of the gun.

As I said before, UBC helps some barrels more than others, and it may not be for everybody, but I have yet to see or read about any negative impacts on any barrel that it's been used in (assuming proper installation).

Richard, I fully understand your scepticism, I am having a very hard time believing it myself. But with all of the positive things I have read about it and not reading about any negative impacts at all I figure I might as well try it and form my own opinion. The barrel I want to try it in is a factory barrel with a freshly cut chamber and crown. It is extremely accurate but fouls quickly and accuracy drops off. If I can get a little more length between cleanings and minimize cleaning time I will be a happy camper. If not I will be moving on to the next step.

As I said above when I do get a chance to try it I will do a write up with the results, good or bad.
 
What is the name of your company at the show?. I don't have time to go, but i will have a friend snag some for a few new rifles waiting to be fired.
 
Just tell him to look for the table with the big banner ;) I'll be sharing the table with a friend, so I'm not sure what name it will be under. The name of my company is Precision Motorsport, Inc.

I will look forward to your results.

I can see this being very helpful with factory barrels, I had an XR-100 in 22-250 that copper fouled like a mofo but still still took gophers out at 425yds. It would take a good hour to clean that sucker out though.

My match barrels are done in about 15minutes or less.
 
I will look forward to your results.

I can see this being very helpful with factory barrels,

This is where I can see it being a benefit as well, sorry I should have stated that from the start. A match grade, hand lapped barrel should not need a treatment such as this, although I could be wrong. Without ever using it I cant say for sure.

I know one thing, if it helps in clean up time and doesn't hurt accuracy(as is pretty much said with everything I have read), I am all for it!

I am looking forward to trying it out and will post the results for sure.

Well today I was a few tables in from where the old entrace doors used to be. Unfortunately we were alloted fewer tables than we were expecting, so I wasn't able to get a banner up today. Will try for tomorrow.
 
I will do a write up when I am finished testing, I won't forget Jordan ;). I would like to get it in another bore before coming up with a solid opinion.

So far I will say this, this stuff is pretty darn impressive!!! It seems to have fixed the copper fouling issues I was having with a certain bore with no negative effects at all.
