I have a Lyman turbo 1200 pro. It does quite well but is very noisy. I'd like to try out one of the ultrasonic case cleaners hornady and lyman put out but i really have no need for one and always end...

I mounted a Barska 3-12 on my Ruger 10-22. it cost about 50 bucks and it serves its job well, but I would recommend spending a bit more money on a scope, it is worth it. I do think that 3-12 or...

I clean mine after every session with boretech eliminator and then run some kind of light oil down the barrel if I'm going to shoot it soon, if not i will run some breakfree into the bore.
