I'm having trouble getting the area around the forcing cone clean. The powder residue that accumulates there just doesn't want to come off. I have this problem with all my revolvers.
I just spent over forty minutes scrubbing one gun with a brass bristle brush using Ballistol, Hoppes #9, Kroil, Winchester Break Free Powder Blast, Advance Auto Carb Cleaner and Advance Auto Heavy Duty Engine Degreaser. Multiple applications of each product. Most of the forcing cone buildup came off but not all of it. These guns all use ammo with smokeless powder.
