While some may not get filled with the stuff and maybe even self clean to some extent others do get a build up. I agree about 22 barrels, don't clean them unless that if a really bad ammunition has been used that had nearly zero bullet lube. Possible leading could result. Good ammo, just shoot. Some .22lr powder is filthy, mine have SAK on them and simply taking them off and thumping them, piles of crud fall out! I clean all my barrels regularly, but my .22lr's the least, they are dedicated, Sub Sonic Lead ammo guns, no copper coat. Just the same when I do clean them it is carefully and thoroughly, I never use a bore snake as the OP mentioned, evil things! Edited April 22, 2022 by Deker 1 Quote Link to post
philpot 4,927 Posted May 27, 2022 Report Share Posted May 27, 2022 I don't clean my barrel at all but every now and then I take off my Wildcat Panther mod and give it a few taps on the bench after opening it up, loads of crap fall out then check with 10 shots and we are away again.
