Now first off this is in no way a thread to trash Lyman. I own several Lyman muzzleloaders. In fact I have at least one of everything they offer. I love them.
One thing I noticed after getting my first T/C with a GM barrel on it was with my usual cleaning routine (which is anal by anyones standards) I end up with a spotless barrel that shows pure white patches from the GM barrel.
All of my Lyman barrels continue to produce gray colored patches no matter how hard I try to clean the barrel.
Is it because of the steel the barrels are made of?
I've always cleaned the daylights out of my Lyman's and checked the bores with bore lights. No matter what, the patch is gray.
