    that's right Jim.
    Plenty of Hoppes No. 9, 20 strokes or so, let it stand for 20 minutes or so, then 50 strokes and patch out until dry. All the old oils/grease and top grime is off. I use a ratcheting brush on the chamber. No more rust there! Shiny copper comes out next.
    crown, 12inches, throat, shoulder.

    Yes there are. Most impressive to me is still the end of the land worn by steel rod use. Very damning evidence of what instructors told troops about over use of a rod when cleaning...then insisted on them scrubbing the crap out of their rifles.
