[QUOTE="Darryl Cassel, post: 42707, member: 34"] Moosehunter Do you have carb cleaner for the car engine? That works good for the Powder residue. Do you have ammonia? Pour out 1/2 of the contents of Hoppes #9 in another container. Add 1/4 ammonia to one of the containers of Hoppes. After using the straight Hoppes and cleaning the rifle, run some dry patches down the barrel. Now wet a patch with the ammonia mixed Hoppes and run it back and forth in the barrel. Let stand 5 minutes and run another wet patch of the ammonia mixture. You should see a green color on the patch. Keep doing this till the green goes away with a wet patch but, not more then 15 mins total and DO NOT use a brass brush during the use of the ammonia mixture. At the end of 15 Min. run 2 or 3 dry patches in the barrel and then go back to the straight Hoppes and wet the bore real good and then brush several strokes with a bore brush. Dry with 2 or 3 patches and then put a wet oiled patch down the bore to seal the metal from mosture. That should clean your rifle very well. Darryl Cassel [/QUOTE]
