I have discovered that in several used rifles I have purchased, after shooting them and cleaning them, I have discovered that a dry patch down the bore will bring up brown crud the next day. So I clean again and use a brush till the patch comes out clean. The next day, brown crud appears in the barrel. I reclean using 0000 steel wool and again a day later, brown crud appears. This is not light brown thin stuff, but heavy thick dark brown crud. It seams to be in the area of the barrel, starting at the nipple for a length of about 6 to 8 inches.
I believe that this is packed hardened BP residue. What modern miracle can be used to get all of this stuff outta my barrel please?
