[QUOTE="kiwikid, post: 2070405, member: 56094"] Shooters, when you left the rounds pictured in your chamber did you have your suppressor on and was the rifle left standing upright? Here in NZ we have been using suppressors for many years and it has been found that the residue left in a suppressor after it has been used attracts moisture. This is worsened when the suppressor gets warm due to shooting and then is stored in a cold place. The moisture eventually runs down the rifles bore and can do severe damage to the rifling. I have personally seen several 22 LR rifles with corroded barrels due to the owners not removing the suppressor before storing their rifle. [/QUOTE]
