[QUOTE="Shadowrider, post: 2586220, member: 3099"] Sounds like it still has some corrosive salts embedded in the pits of that spot. This may be more work than the rifle is worth but here goes: 1) mix up some Ballistol with water (9 parts water to 1 part Ballistol) 2) brush the pizz out of the bore with this, don't be bashful with the mixture. 3) patch it dry. 4) plug the chamber with a rubber plug 5) put the gun muzzle up in an undisturbed corner somewhere and fill the barrel to the top with Kano Kroil cover the top balloon and rubber band. 6) leave it setting for a week. 7) pour the Kroil back in the can (it'll still be good and you'll need it below) 8) brush the pizz out of it again with Kroil 9) swab it dry. 10) using a jag, tight fitting patches, Kroil and JB bore paste run it back and forth, especially on this spot as many times as it takes. 11) clean it out with patches and Kroil, dry it out, and use Ballistol, Eezox or Frog Lube as a preservative like mentioned above. Frog Lube does work well at preventing corrosion as does Eezox. But none of these new wonder lubes (or old ones) will remove the corrosion once it's there. Kroil and JB Bore paste will but it takes time and scrubbing. When you're done it might be the most accurate gun you own. [/QUOTE]
