[QUOTE="sierrastalker, post: 2955035, member: 125664"] Anyone ever had this? There’s some white powdery residue built up inside my 7mm-08 Sako A7. The rifle has been in a climate controlled gun storage room for a bunch of years and never fired until recently. I’ve only got 30 rounds through it for barrel break in. Was shooting some pretty mild loads with IMR 3031. Not sure if that means anything. It’s flaky/powdery with a kind of tough lump in it. I’m hoping it’s some kind of grease coming out and not corrosion of some sort. Other than cleaning it and oiling, any other advice or idea of what it is? [ATTACH type="full"]513870[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
