    Cleaner

    What are you using to get the plastic wad material out of your choke tubes?

    Try boiling water. Or Windex with vinegar. Should slide right out like a snake skin.

    YMMV, but it has worked for me. I use this to clean the barrel on my double after shooting black powder loads…..

    Cordless drill, bore brush attached to it, gets it right out for me! Good luck whatever method you choose.
    I firmly believe that you should only get treated by how you act, not by who or what you are!!
