    help removing lead from barrel

    I own a benelli m4 and I put in a lot of rifled slugs through it but I can't for some reason get rid of all that barrel leading. I use the 3 point cleaning system from otis clppatch/bore brush/dry patch thanks in advance for your help.

    Run by a Smoke shop and pick up some brass screens for pipes. They should
    be close enough in size to run down the barrel and get the lead out.

    Works on the smaller bore sizes as well.

      Put the barrel in really hot water

      Put a Tornado brush on your cleaning rod then chuck it up in a drill and have at it.
      I move slow but I make up for it by shooting poorly.

      When I hit the lotto I'm only shooting factory.

        Have you shot it till it gets hot and then cleaned it immediately, I have heard some guys say that will do it.
        I think it can be confirmed that an alien xenomorph is absolutely no match for good ole' Alabama black snake!

        and

              They do a nice job...wrap a piece of one around a 12ga cleaning brush. Use a cordless drill on the other end and plenty of Hoppe's #9 or CLP.

                Can use 0000 or 00000 steel wool wrapped around the cleaning brushor a wooden rodd. As a breech guide you can make from a fire shell and 3/8 drill bit. This fits on shotgun cleaning rodd and can be use with hand or drill/cordless drill. Dry or with bore cleaner. Use with ATF for rust. Pour ammount into shot glass so you don't spill or contaminate your whole bottle of cleaner with dirty brushes.
