    I saw the small crack, you'll need to clean out all the old glue first and the residual oil. I used to use "microbed" by Brownell's but don't know if they still make it. Saw the ring in the bore, not so unusual... Just a good cleaning and that should take most of the active rust. If you decide to blue it, we can all talk further then. Yes, take it out and warm it up. Don't fear the real good ammo, it won't come apart.

    Thanks again Jim. You always give good advice, finding the real good 22 long ammo is tough! I think Winchester did a special run of them a few years back when they did the WRF, but I didn't buy any at the time. So the subsonic CCI CB 22 Long is about all that is available for these old girls anymore; I keep a good stock of them on hand for my rifles that use 22 LONG and for testing 22 rifles after I fix them.

    I just mean good quality full power. Even stingers or yellow jackets...but I suppose that's short there right now. Gun will work fine I think...
