Default tight bore

anyone else have an tc new englander with an tight bore.

I pulled my out to give it an cleaning. same windex patches I always use that fits in my 45cal apex are tight in it. I have t shirt patches that I use for my dry are tight in it. powerbelts are a witch (with a b) to load.

went to pull a dry patch out and pulled out the tip. (used the one from my usak) got the tip out.

Default RE: tight bore

Sounds like you just need a slightly smaller jag for that barrel. You can turn down a .50 jag, or use a .45 jag with at thicker or double patch.
