It still shoots remarkably well for being so neglected/abused.

Is there anything I can coat the bore with to stop the rust spots from redeveloping? I've tried Rem-Oil but me thinks I need to try something else to put a stop to the rust spots for good.

Any ideas? Suggestions? Experiences?

Thanks. WN


Evapo-Rust

Do not immerse the barrel in this product. Don't want your plastic sights getting wet. Just use a jagged wet patch to keep the inside of the bore wet overnight. Then wet a bore brush patch in the morning and scrub with the Evapo-rust until 'hopefully' rust-removed.

Or you can try JB Bore Paste on a brass bore brush and several patches and 100 laps later might work too. I like Birchwood-Casey Barricade for gun oil It's very good and long-long lasting, even in humid areas.
