Another successful user of the IV8888 method, on a few different rifles. He gets a lot of undeserved hate, IMO.
I'll try the scrubby method next time, will be easier to clean once you're done. That compound can be a pain to get out.

Let us know she shoots
After scrubbing the chamber yesterday, I tested the gun again today. It's better, I only have to whack the bolt handle with my palm, instead of a 2x4. Do these scratches look like they're from the extractor, or maybe burrs in the chamber? Or maybe it just needs some serious shooting to wake back up out of retirement.
Looks like chamber to me; I would work on that chamber some more.After scrubbing the chamber yesterday, I tested the gun again today.
