| I have an SAR-1, and I have fired over 3000 rounds of Wolf and TCW "Effect" rounds. These are all non-corrosive, correct? I had the rifle in a foam case for a couple of weeks. I looked in the bore while cleaning, and there is some sort of build up on the lands. Could I have corroded the chrome, or is it just copper fouling? Can I clean this up? Also, how do I clean out the chamber? |

1) Don't store a rifle in a closed case, especially a dirty rifle. 2) Ammo should be non-corrosive. 3) It is proabally copper residue from the jackets corroding. Clean the barrel with a .30 caliber phospor bronze brush and a decent solvent. 3000 rounds?? Clean the whole damn rifle and lube it properly while you are at it. 4) A few patches and solvent will swab out the chamber when you are following up on your 'brushed' bore. CLP, Tetra or TW25B will work well. I perfer TW25B products. |
