Undecided on a great many things
My inline cleans fine in the barrel, but the breech plug is a PITA. The hole cleans with a drill bit and a pin, but there is a step ledge for the 209 primer and all this gets coated with residue and I can't get it off. Every time it gets a bit worse.
This year after the season, I have tried soaking in hot water, spray nine, vinegar and water. The spray nine dissolved it some but I can't get it all off. This will still shoot, it just looks like a poorly maintained weapon and I would like to get it clean. I've considered changing to BP because hot water fixes everything there, period. This Pyrodex is awful to clean up.
What dissolves this stuff off a stainless (really not) breech plug? Paint solvent, muriatic acid, maybe hydrochloric? Last sentence is sarcasm, this stuff shouldn't be this hard to clean.
