I've done a search and most rust related threads are regarding exterior rust. I'm cleaning a rifle and lo and behold i see rust on half the lands of the rifling near the end of the barrel. A friend suggested using penetrating oil and just repeatedly using the copper barrel brush. I did that and repeatedly brushed it out using hoppes also. It still looks exactly the same. It is as if the brush tines are not really contacting the top of the lands and are slipping into the grooves. Or maybe I'm just not using the right products. I think I need to use something to work directly on the rusted part as a bore brush doesn't seem to do the trick, but I don't want to do anything to damage the rifling or crown. Browning a-bolt, blued barrel if that matters. Thanks in advance for your advice.
