I have a Marlin model 60 that I should almost exclusively with the Remington lead "golden bullets" hollowpoint 550 round value packs now. My gun doesn't like the copper jacketed Federal 550 round value packs, they don't cycle the action, I have to pull the action after every shot to get it to cycle, but it will shoot the Remingtons all day long without a single jam. Strange as they both supposedly have the same specs....but apparently the Federal stuff is weaker, I guess they gotta cut corners somewhere with the copper jacketing....my father's stainless model 60 behaves the exact same way....
So I've had about 1,000 rounds through the gun so far with only one light cleaning and I'm starting to worry that my accuracy will suffer or that the barrel might get leaded up and I will have a Kaboom!
Anyone have any advice as to what I should use to clean the barrel with that will remove any possible lead deposits?
