Im such a retard....
Last yr I bought the new TC Triumph. Scoped it, sighted it in, hunted w/ it, shot a doe, came home and put it in the closet till tonite.
(notice what ive left out....) thats right, I never cleaned it! [:@]
I did my best tonite, but the barrel still has apparent rust in it as well as what seems to be pots/pits/whatever.
Am I hopeless? Should I chuck this barrell and call TC and order another?
Call me what you will, I deserve it. But Id also like your suggestions as to what to do next...
My son did that to his Kight Disc when he was about 17 or so, I cleaned it with brake cleaner, and scrubbed the bore with paste, you can see pits in it still but guess what, it still shoots well and my younger brother shot two deer with it last year at about 100 yards. It is NOT a tack driver as it was, but it still holds a group and still shoots hunting well, so do what cayugad says and then shoot it. Then swithch over to Blackhorn powder in it and shoot about 90 or 100g. Chap
