Recently got my first .22 plinker handgun. A S&W 22A-1 two tone. First I got to say I love this thing, I have only had it a few days and have already put off work and gone out twice and put over 1500 rounds through it using 4 different types of ammo. It loves to eat Federal Value pack hps.
Anyways the barrel is caked with lead inside and I can't get it out, spent an hour using hoppes and a brush, soaked it in kerosene and brushed it some more, countless patches etc etc, I can't get the bugger clean. Any suggestions?
