Hello to All,
If you store an oiled barrel vertically, some oil will drain down.
This has happened to me.
Luckily, the oil did not get into the transfer port.
I store all my break-barrels broken, so this is not an issue with them.
I now use grease (Lupus) on the VFG cleaning felts, and this does not shift, but still does a fine job of cleaning.
A couple of the VFG shooting felts, or fag. filters (they work very well indeed ) backed by a pellet to remove excess grease before a session, and job is a good 'un.
Have fun
Best regards
Russ
Clean an air rifle barrel ? why ?? to stop it going rusty through lack of use maybe but personally I don't. Why throw away furry pellets ?? Just use them for plinking if you think they are going to be less accurate or give them to someone.
Rabbit Stew, no artificial additives except lead.
IF THE MUD REACHES YOUR KNEES GET OUT OF THE FIELD QUICK.
WANTED. UNF MOD.
My Ultra lost accuracy recently, it was all over the place, couldn't hit a bottle top at 30 yards zero distance.
After a pull through with oiled patches and a few dry ones to finish it off, and 50 pellets to lead the barrel up, it was back to shooting spot on.
It must have had a good few thousand pellets through it before it needed cleaning though.
