Moly coated bullets

Ok meths no good? I use meths in bore if ive used an ammonia cleaner in it

Metho is ok as long as your not going to moly coat as it does leave some residues that will upset the coating process . Other than that metho will do .

Meths usually has a dye in it. After the alcohol evaporates, there will be a trace of that dye remaining.
Isopropyl alcohol, or even brake cleaner, might be a better option.
But, having got the bore so scrupulously clean, make sure that your corrosion protection is up to scratch

With Hoppes no 9 avoid breathing the fumes as it's got methanol in it and it's very bad for you .
Wear a mask while cleaning with any bore solvents . I never did when I was young because we just did not know , no internet back then and I think I have some lung damage . https://www.hoppes.com/on/demandware.st ... 2e5830.pdf
