Sticky case in DR
      #126308 - 09/02/09 02:14 AM

My cases are sticky with full loads. I attribute this to corrosion marks in the chamber.

What is the best way to polish the chamber?

I would use a 'flapper' of emery-paper in the electric drill.

Corrosion must be pretty bad, though, to cause sticky extraction in a low-pressure DR cartridge.
..or is it a modern high-pressure chambering?

Are your cases pocked from the chamber corrosion? If you can't see anything on the cases it probably is fine. You may want to polish it up a bit though. Try using Pearl Drops Toothpaste. It is very abrasive and polishes metal wonderfully.

Get a 28 gauge wool Shotgun jag and soak it. Put it on your drill motor grind away.
