Gil,

Yep, you are correct about few corrosive rounds being fired from charger clips. I have seen many pitted bolt faces because corrosive residue got onto the bolt face and was not properly cleaned.

Direct inpingement gas guns like the Hakim blast corrosive residue into the action where charger clips can be contaminated. Further, the gun operator may have handled chargers after cleaning a corrosive bore. Some folks prefer to remove any corrosive residue and be done with it.
