I have wondered if making your last couple of shots with a Non Corrosive Boxer Primed Round would help Blast some of the salts out of the Barrel.
Then Clean. Just an Idea. |

None of my seven Mosins have ever tasted water, and their bores are still good. Any good bore cleaner (I am NOT including Hoppes #9 in this) will work fine. Hoppes Elite, CLP, the old GI surplus LSA and Milspec "Rifle Bore Cleaner", Birchwood-Casey Bore Scrubber - all work well.
I then follow with a good gun oil in the bore to help prevent corrosion. I live in humid Florida - it works for me. Ditto for my other milsurps. Some gun owners get the oddest ideas from the internut. |
