Here is a new one for me.
I was shooting my father's ruger single six .22LR today. I decided that I needed to get it cleaned because accuracy was going.
So just now I'm sitting here cleaning and while push the rod down the barrel I get stopped. After pushing harder, several chucks of lead that was apparently stuck in the forcing cone come out with the bore brush. Neadless to say I am shocked. The ammo was the winchester 36 grain xpert lead hollow point cheap stuff. Is this normal leading or should the gun be seen by a gunsmith?
