Help!!
Guys,

I'm at a loss with this one.
This is the Axtel rifle I picked up at the Q a couple years ago and it has been giving me fits trying to clean the lead and carbon fouling out of the bore.
I soaked the bore with Kroil and tight patches and the patches in the beginning where silver with lead and scrubbed it rith nylon brushes with turpentine followed with a doubble tight patch and shot a bunch of PP rounds through hoping the paper woud help clean it out.
Most of the carbon fouling is gone and the lead is maybe 50% out but this last you see just wont budge. The only other option I have is using the otters electric lead remover but I hesetate using this because it will burnish the steel if I don't get it it right. I had gray spots using this once using it on a HP rifle.

This rifle has had nothing but GG bullets shot through it and the bore scope shows the results not getting the gray off that is still on the clean white patch last through the bore.
I wish I could down load the AVI that shows the worse leadding in the bore. These three pictures are the spots I got most of the lead out.

So far I have not found any pitting under the lead, but I still have a lot to get out.

Kurt
