[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1792257, member: 30902"] Use some non chlorinated brake cleaner and alternate it with your favorite bore cleaner. I like the Montana Extreme products but there are quite a few designed specifically for carbon. Also I'd take an 8mm nylon brush, on a short rod, wrap a shotgun or ML patch around it, insert it just to where you're getting a good bite indicating you are at the neck area and just into the lands. Lube it up with the same two, brake cleaner and bore cleaner alternately and spin the hell out of it for about 30 seconds at a time then alternate. I may be wrong but I'm thinking I see a fairly serious carbon build up in that area. The whole chamber and most of the barrel look rough to me. it should all be shiny but looks more to me like brushed stainless that has been eroded with a sand blaster. You can do a good job of polishing the chamber and bore yourself and if you want my recipe let me know and I'll provide it. Personally once I had cleaned the snot out of it I think I'd have a long talk with my gunsmith and the barrel manufacturer. That barrel just isn't "right", at least best I can tell from your video. Too bad you don't have a borescope with a 90 degree mirror that allows you a really good view of the lands, grooves, and throat. [/QUOTE]
