Id recommend using common sense and not firelapping your barrel
Gun has been bedded floated tweaked and twisted but it wont play the game, starts with an average group but progressively gets worse the more rounds through it, is gonna be a last resort with the fire lapping before gun gets put into a project status
I havent looked since throwing it in the cupboard yesterday but im gonna go and clean it soon so ill see, but that is what is being suggested.
In my experience lapping of any sort will not help it if it fouls badly. What make of barrel? TF?
Do what ya want! Ya will anyway.
its fucked give it to me

Is it coppering badly?
Can you feel any tight spots (or loose)as the cleaning rod is pushed threw?
Can you feel any bulge on the outside of the barrel?
What cal and any idea how many rounds down it?

Not really any tight spots the whole barrel is quite tight, no bulges that i can see.
Not sure how many rounds through it but my mate has never been happy with it performance since new.
Cleaned it before i shot and the first patch was very black but the rest were quite clean.
If its not coppering it could just be it doesn't like what your feeding it.
have you tried a few different projectiles and seating depths.?
A second hand barrel I have coppered,still shot ok but coppered.
I cleaned and shot cleaned and shot etc etc with no change.
Then cleaned spotless of copper and carbon and shot 10 blanks to carbon the bore and shot from there. Its been mint ever since

Not loading for it but it liked Winchester best and then i had to move to Hornady for lack of Winny, it started 3 to 5 inch groups with Hornady.
He used to run Norma in it as it was better than most but not great.
