    BORE SNAKE CLEAN

    After firing a few rounds thinking my scope wasn't tracking accurately.Gave the tika a bore snake clean and went to the range this morning.Barrel won't stay hot long in our winter mornings.
    Meet Zeb there from Temuka with all his toys,nice.I hopefully only needed to fire a few rounds,2 flyers and 3 for a group.Zeb let me go ahead while his rifle cooled down.Well I fired 2 shots off the bonnet of the truck,woow thats all I need.Cleaning with hoppes I get a couple of flyers 1st then a tightish group of 3 afterwards.
    Maybe the bore snake is a softer cleaner than the hoppes9 ?any how il leave the scope alone now.Zebs 7ml mag must have woken up every rabbit with in 5 ks with its earth shaking noise,lols
    Heres my result after a quick bore snake clean using Hornady 165gr ssts.
