I clean after each shooting and avoid the problem.
When I was an LEO armorer I made a clymer equivalent reamer. But one day I tried a tornado brush and that works wonders but never use the tornado brush in the barrel to not damage rifling.
Soak in a solvent cylinder out of gun then brush in drill .after having to do this once always cleaned after any shooting .
I've gotten ridges out with a lead remover I got on line. It's metal shavings like those on a scouring pad. You wrap a few strands around a cleaning brush and
put the end of the rod into you drill and run it in each cylinder.
I believe it was call the Frontier 45 rust remover pad.
I load my 38 special loads in 357 cases..never have a ring...works like a champ
Great tips, I was just searching for a way to remove this from my Revolvers.
I have been using Big 45 Frontier Metal Cleaner for years. The rings are gone in about 5 seconds. It will not damage your gun.
