Before you shoot it
Fort Scott recommends a thorough barrel cleaning if you’ve been shooting 8.6 Blackout that is not solid copper or brass, before you switch to this solid copper load. They also note that cycling the same unfired cartridge through the action repeatedly can loosen the bullet, which is more common with larger solid projectiles. On AR-10 pattern rifles, they recommend polishing the feed ramp and checking headspace.
