Ultrasonic cleaning of barrels?

Post by Tim N »

Hi all,
Just been reading up on ultrasonic cleaning for cases and wondered if it's a method that's used to clean barrels?

Yes - some are trying and seem very happy with results. I might wait a while longer to see there is no chemical damage before trying but sounds great

Would use a bit of chemical though...

You might even be able to de-pimp a stock.
