Muzzleloader barrel cleaner

[Marvin S]

Years ago CVA used to make a barrel blaster cleaning system that used batteries and such that seemed kind of neat but looked complicated. I came up with this thing but have not used it yet. Its just a new bug sprayer with a custom made wand out of #4 stainless steel tubing and a orifice fitted to the end that has one jet in the center and three around the outer edge. The idea is to hold the gun muzzle down and insert the rod and wash the barrel out, plugging the vent hole with a tooth pick of course. It should eliminate a lot of the work of cleaning.

looks and sounds feasable, let us know how it performs.

I used at the rondevous this weekend and think it worked very well. I filled it with windshield washer fluid and sprayed a little in the barrel then ran the breech scraper a few turns then washed it out. I could see to the breech face on the trade gun and it was nice and clean.
