Clogged barrel
?? I was recently handed a Traditions in-line rifle from a neighbor. He explained to me that he purchased the weapon to take up hunting last fall season. The gun is 9 years old, but was still in original box and unused he he aquired it. After firing the weapon a few times, it would not work properly. After a few questions, I realized that the gun he handed me still has a charge and sabot round in the barrel. Apparently the gun fouled and the charge never fired. I have attempted to push the charge and round out with the standard ram rod to no avail. How do I clear the weapon?? Is there a solvent that will break down the pyrodex charge so I can push the sabot free?
