Ended up in a small sporting clays charity tournament this morning. The mystery can of cleaning fluid came in Friday or Saturday while I was out. So it was the perfect time to give it a try this afternoon. I'd put a hundred plus rounds thru the gun and another 75 by a squad mate who's gun malfunctioned. I've only owned the gun since Monday, brand new, and I'd put about 125 rounds thru it during the week in testing. I had cleaned it after that session.SQLGeek wrote:Please let me know what you figure out for plastic fouling as I'm on the hunt myself.
Shooter's Choice: Shotgun & Choke Tube Cleaner is not indoor or human friendly. However, it does a heck of a job on fouled barrels. I gave both barrels a good dosing per the instructions, waited a few minutes, and then hit it with the tornado brush. Black, oddly stringy gunk came out the end of the barrels like you wouldn't believe. I'm assuming the stringy stuff is bits of chemically melted plastic?
With that thought, I became immediately concerned for my front fiber optic sight.
I'd say it works pretty good, but don't breath it in. My lungs feel I've smoked a stogie.
...and somehow I took home a trophy today. Crazy.
