I have a S&W 686+ 357 Magnum and shoot a lot of 38 Special. Because the chamber has two diameters machined in it (larger diameter for the cartridge, smaller diameter for the bullet), and because the 38 cartridge is short I get a lot of gunk deposited in the chamber. This is extremely difficult to clean out.
Question 1: What sort of problems (such as safety, accuracy, erosion, etc.) can this gunk in the chamber cause?
Question 2: What method do you use to remove the chamber residue left from shooting 38 Special in your 357 Magnum?
