i have a Surplus military rifle (7.62 x 54r) that I recently shot some surplus ammo thru...
When i was finished shooting it, I cleaned it thoroughly, and left for an out of town job. When I returned, I inspected it, and noticed rust showing in the bore, at the end of the barrell.
I believe (now know) that the military ammo was corrosive, and that normal cleaning does not seem to prevent the rust?
Any suggestions on the best bore cleaner to prevent rust, and how to remedy the rust situation?
