I have a M44 Nagant and love it, its a great shooter. After every range I clean and scrub and clean the bore some more. Problem is I'm still getting surface rust days later. Ive even tried lightly oiling the bore but no luck. What is the preferred cleaning method to prevent this bore rust?
What is a frosty bore?
I use windex because the ammonia helps it to evaporate faster than just water.
here's a good link to a guy's systematic approach to determining which gun oils are the best rust preventatives: The Gun Zone -- Corrosion Test
I understand that it is the primer that creates the problem and makes it next to impossible to reload.
?????? RU serious? It's a bore with grooves that no longer have the original mirror-like surface. They have become microscopically pitted by corrosion and what-not so they appear dull and frosty looking.
