BSR,

Does the “frosting” affect accuracy to any noticeable degree? Is it something that can be cleaned away?

Thanks,

I have several antique rifles that I shoot, both muzzleloaders and cartridge, with worse pitting and they shoot fine. I recently posted an Ardesa rifle with a heavier frost and posted pics of a test target with respectable group, especially for my eyes. If it wasn't raining here, I would take it out and shoot a test.

I read someplace that shooting a hollowbase bullet with some polishing media in grease grooves smooths out rough spots. Then you just have to keep on top of the cleaning. I have not tried this myownself.
