As you know im giving T7 another shot too after the recommended changes to my storing and cleaning products/procedures. I probably hate the ring as much as anyone and gave away all of my T7 until buying one more bottle a month or two ago.
I now firmly believe RemOil (Teflon) was part of the problem and also that i didn't get it all out before shooting in my WinApex. Its gone now though so i cant make a good comparison in that gun.
The new bottle of T7 is still sitting sealed until im ready to see if those changes have made a difference in my newer guns. The BB did make a difference in the old Thunderhawk after years of use. I hate the stuff too but it must have done something after years of use. Now ive gotten the new owner to use MX and your swabbing mix.
Boom.... problem solved in that gun even with 209 primers. Its a dirty beast but almost no crud ring. Im not sure if its was the MX or the years of using BB. Since i wont use BB anymore, i can only rely on my MX tests i will try soon. I will give BoreCoat a try someday too if needed.

But is really cool if you were able to reduce the effects of the 'crud ring'

forgot to add, the bore coat helps reduce the T7 crud ring, you'll still feel it but its much easier to push through with a normal ramrod. With 777 primers or cci inline mzl primers i honestly think it would be almost non existent. No one sells the cooler primers around here so i havent been able to try them yet to see what happens.

Im working on a 32S&W ignition option that might be useful with T7 and the Knight NFPJ plug. Im sure it could be adapted to other plugs but the Knight plug is what i have and it will need the least amount of machine work to test.
Its going to be awhile before i even get it ready to fire but on paper it looks good sofar.

The Jeep Thing was in jest. Ive seen it so many times in the back window and thought it was an amusing analogy.
Jeeps are fun but i will settle for my Polaris Ranger XP for mild off road use. Its slow but so far i cant get it stuck and it carries all i need plus a passenger with ease. :yeah:

nah, jeeps are great for getting into the tight and narrow mountain trails. I have an isuzu rodeo and love it just for that, plus i can skip the tent and just camp out in the back of it with the rear seat folded down. Sure beats the heck out of using that tough riding f250.
but just the same,Scotts sells cheaper lawn fertilizer and more of it in a bag than what the american super powder offers.

But if you can not give APP away and you can not put it in the trash can because that is not legal... the next best thing is fertilizer and it really did not do to bad.... At least it went away...
