First, I would clean it really, really well. I'm talking about Butch's, JB, and Sweets as many times as it takes to get a perfectly clean patch. If that doesn't do it have a gunsmith check the crown. try several different brands of ammo. If it's still bad after that I would sell it unless it has sentimental value. If it does go to gunshows and buy a piece of junk with a good barrel.
