The reason why my wheel gun is my favorite is that its very easy to clean. I look at it the same way I do motors. Good maintenance is crucial but fiddling around too much usually has negative results. Consider using a slightly better factory load if you don't want to reload. Some ammos shoot dirty. Too much oil residue contributes to that. I drag a piece of teflon cleaning wipe through every extended practice. clean it thoroughly every 500 rounds. No problems.
A fired gun will never be new again. Trying to fight it is just going to make you miserable and mess up a good gun.
There is a reason why the wheel is one of the the greatest inventions of mankind.
