All suggestions noted, especially the brush alteration, great idea.
The bullets that i ordered were for my marlin lever action, but the balls are 454's as thats are what the other lads use and the only ball size not available in th club shop, so if they are wrong, its a simple sell or swap.
I do have a near full half litre of Ballistol, a 10% mix to water for cleaning has been suggested.
Thank you all.
