Get ready for a good one!
I got a bunch of ammo from my brother that he's had for a few years. He doesn't own a gun that uses it and I do (38 special).
He had it stored in zip lock containers wrapped in rubber bands. He says he's had it about 4 years or so. The rubber bands bonded to some of the brass. It appears to be some type of Winchester FMJ.
Can I clean this ammo off with something to get the rubber band gunk off the brass so I can fire it. I don't want to possibly damage on of my guns with this possibly odd fitting brass or have cylinder damage due to whatever toxic chemicals are release when rubber band gunk gets hot inside a cylinder. I don't want to damage the primers and have a bunch of miss or hang fires.
Any advice?
