BAD day at the range today. Was using dutches system and got a too thick and too dry patch stuck at 6". Long story short...no shooting this one out, made a custom puller and used impact hammer.
Any way when trying too shoot out with a few grains of powder (dumped all powder to avoid a bulge and then put in 3-5 grains)I had steam and smoke and hissing and white crud coming out the nipple. This stuff clogged the nipple beyond field cleaning, tried two new nipples and same thing.
Anyone know what this white goo was? I did add a bit of moose juice down the barrel trying to get ball out but after two tries am thinking any excess shoulda been dried up and gone? Shooting 2f goex. Also gun was about 3 times harder to clean too?
At least I only dry balled once! :blah: That one shot out 30 yds no problems.
