The Things I Do to Study Carbon Rings
Rifle Accuracy and Reloading

I'm back at the range with a 6.5 Creedmoor for a follow-up to my videos on rifle pressure and carbon rings.
The goal? Put some rounds through the barrel, build up fouling, monitor velocity, and see how the rifle performs from 100 yards out to 600 yards.
You'll see the rifle on the bench, groups on steel, changing conditions, barrel mirage, and the velocity readings from the shooting session. I also share the final average velocity and standard deviation.
Was the barrel fouled enough to develop a carbon ring? That's something to investigate—not assume.
If you're into precision shooting, rifle barrel maintenance, chronograph data, and real-world range testing, join me for this session.
Let's engage: What would you look for to determine whether a carbon ring has actually formed, and what evidence would you want to see before connecting it to pressure or accuracy?

See you at the range!
