New Pedersoli Rust in Barrel

[29thWisCoG]

Just as an experiment. Now that you're getting clean patches. Try the brake cleaner one more time and see if it brings up anything.

I was curious so I ran 5 patches with the Brake Cleaner (CRC Brakclean), here is the first and the last, nothing really on them... the first had a little grease/oil but I think that was from the CLP I had applied the night before to coat the barrel...

I think it was mainly rust since the Windex with Vinegar did such a good job with it... if that didn't work I was going to try some Evapo-Rust patches

Somewhat disappointed that this expensive quality rifle had rust!

Now on to the flash channel, and trying to figure out how to get it clean.

A while back, I bought a little portable steam cleaner on Ebay for about 30 bucks. I remove the barrel from my gun and then take the nipple off. Next step is to blast the steam through the flame channel. Then I go from the muzzle end. Repeat a few times, run some patches and done. Cleans up the barrel really nice.
