I've got a NAA mini .22short. I ran a standard hoppes copper cleaning brush through the barrel a few times with their heavy solvent. When I looked inside the barrel, the whole thing looked not scratched, but litterally gouged centripitally all up and down the barrel. Is the mettal of those barrels so soft that I ruined it cleaning it like that? Or do they actually come that gouged up?
