Cleaning blackpowder rifles
10/07/11 02:51 AM

Hello Folks,

Even Ned Roberts got tired of the old boiling water routine. He switched to Hoppe's No. 9 or J.L.N. Nirto-Solvent for cleaning, and B.S.A. Safetipaste, Rust Veto No. 3, or Rig for rust prevention (although I know he was fond of bear fat).

There are numerous solutions for cleaning muzzleloading rifles; many are home-made. They range from hot water to witches brews. Saliva comes highly recommended. What's your favorite?
