Not that I'm a total idiot, but I recently acquired a CVA Hawken and am confused about cleaning the barrel . I have an in-line and completely understand cleaning it, but with the sidelock having a 'solid' breech plug, how does one clean the barrel with the jag and patches without the patch getting stuck in the barrel ? It just seems to me (from what I've read) that the patch will get stuck in there. And if so, how would I get it out?
For now, I use a bore brush and cotton swab, hot, soapy water and bore butter. Seems to do the trick, but am I correct this way?
Thanks for any input.
