dwheelsSabot residue removal
Anybody have a favorite solvent to remove the plastic residue left from sabot's?. I probably should post this in the gun cleaning area but I thought someone here would have first hand knowleges. DW

larrysThat, and cleaning the breach plug, are the only things that I have ever found Hoppe's good for. It sucks as a regular gun cleaner, but is excellent for this.

ReloaderI usually use Hoppes on a brush to remove it, but many solvents will work. If you want an easy way, buy a can of PB Blaster, remove the breech plug, and hose the barrel with it. PB will melt the plastic away, many shotgun shooters use it.

youp50A bronze brush in anything will get the plastic.

dwheelsReloader, excuse my ignorance but what is PB? It sounds exactly like what I am looking for. A lot of disolving power and a little elbow grease.
Thanks To Everyone,
