[QUOTE="nosualc, post: 1020994, member: 19537"] Buy yourself a can of wipe-out foam. $10-$12 Use a bore guide and squirt foam into until foam exits the muzzle. Wait a few hours. Squirt foam again. Put the rifle in a rest of some sort with the barrel slightly tipped down toward the muzzle. Put something underneath the muzzle like a newspaper. Let it sit over night, let the cleaner do the work (it won't hurt the bore). If in the morning there is a blue pool of goo on the newspaper, your barrel was full of copper. If so, scrub the bore with a nylon brush 10-12 times, reapply the foam and let it sit again. When you're done (no more blue), patch out with rubbing alcohol, and dry patches. Otherwise, find somebody with a bore-scope to take a look. It's the only way of really knowing if it's clean or damaged. -nosualc [/QUOTE]
