    You're right about the Rimfire Blend being expensive. I made the mistake of buying it from a H & F shop. I plain needed it at the time. First and last time I shopped in H & F.

    But I guess expensive is relative. If you've spent a small fortune on a rifle why not care for your investment with a maybe expensive bottle of something that's effective and will last ages.

    Loose carbon/burnt powder is relatively easy to remove. Carbon rings as in CF however is actually a build up of several layers virtually fused to the metal. I have only one rifle that gives me shit with carbon rings and it's a CF not a RF. It is really bad with the WW760 I use. I didn't even understand the existence of carbon rings until one developed in that rifle. It took ages to remove.
