Moly Coated bullets

After shooting Winchester Ballistic Silvertips, I gave my rifle a standard bore cleaning with Hoppes No.9, cleaned it right up.
It's not recommended to switch from moly to non-moly shooting. Though, if you DO, you don't really need to be all that worried about getting all the moly out of the bore. Those stories come from the benchrest crew who lose sleep over 1/4 MOA. For the rest of us, I doubt there'd even be any noticable difference, especially after a few boxes.
JB is probably the easiest way to remove moly, if you decide you absolutely must get rid of it.

Badbrass, the difference you will see is a gradual increase in pressure as the moly is removed through shooting. But, like KC said, a little #9 and it is all pretty much gone. As for switching back and forth, not a big deal just 3-5 rounds to lay down some moly and stabilize pressures, or 5-10 to strip it out and do the same. Just a bit of a pain in the ass.

The ballistic silvertips are coated with lubalox,not moly.Go to the link below and see for yourself.

Thought Lubalox was a moly coating. My mistake.
