    Good ol soap & water works really well. After awhile you'll get sick of spending money on solvents and making a mess.

    yeap, just debarrel the stock.
    set it flash hole down in a buck of HOT water(don't even need soap), and run a patch down on the rod and start pumping.
    teh patch will syphin the water up the barrel.
    20-30 strokes and you're done, pull it out of the water and run a few dry patches down it to get most of the remaining water, the now well heated barrel will dry it's self teh rest of the way.
    grease it and call it good.


    dixon's is the shizzle, worth the trip from just about anywhere.
    it's only metal, we can out think it....

    I just drop the barrel in the bathtub full of hot water and then swab the bore with dish soap.......take it out and she's dry in minutes. Then lube and store.

    I taught Chuck Norris to bump-fire.
