secretagentmole 1,701 Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 I don't think so, lubing just helps to stop lead building up in the first place! To clean the barrel get a cleaning kit! Quote Link to post

secretagentmole 1,701 Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 (edited) Get a rod based cleaning kit, One like this perhaps.... Suitable for under lever Or for .177 Scroll down a bit.... Make sure the breech is open when you clean, a pull through from the breech end would also work! Edited May 15, 2011 by secretagentmole Quote Link to post

Suitable for under lever Make sure the breech is open when you clean, a pull through from the breech end would also work! they are for rimfires arent they ,way to rough for an airgun mate aent they Quote Link to post
secretagentmole 1,701 Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 No they have fibre mops and are sold for cleaning air rifles. BAR sell them as do Napier! Quote Link to post
festa 206 Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 keeping it simple for you mate and cheapest way that works thread fishing line through the barrel needs to be 30 to 50lb (from front to back) when the line comes out the pellet end loop it and tie a knot get some kitchen roll about 2inch square and fold it end to end put it through the looped end of the fishing line and pull it back through the barrel you might have to repeat it a few times using clean kitchen roll each time atb gary Quote Link to post

Ron Weasley 83 Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 Use a pull through mate, it's best to always clean from breech to muzzle, so cleaning rod isn't the best thing for an underlever. Quote Link to post
matt_hooks 188 Posted May 15, 2011 Report Share Posted May 15, 2011 An interesting one for you, how would you clean an under/side lever with a rolling breech, like the BSA Air Sporter? Quote Link to post
