I remember a product years ago that you coated bullets in, shot them adding a ceramic layer to the bore. Don't know what the name was or if it worked!?
Dyna Bore Coat, supposed to work wonders on milsurps with dark bores. I never got around to trying it.

It’s not because the bore isn’t clean. It’s one of the easiest to clean bores because there aren’t any tooling marks.

JB Bore paste is a bore polish , it has super fine abrasive.
You can clean a bore squeaky clean and run a patch 25 strokes through and patch will be black. Ultra polishes rifling .
Bench rest shooters use it all the time.

These new Marlin barrels are cold hammer forged over mandrel.
