Tips for cleaning neglected 22LR?

257Roberts said:
I've sort of "inherited" a Sears Roebuck 43-103 from a friend. Doesnt appear to have ever been cleaned, and for that matter doesnt appear to have been handled at all in maybe 20+ years.

I've currently got the barrel soaking in Hoppes No.9, but what rifling is present sure don't look like much...

Wondering what folks recommend for scrubbing up old rimfire barrels?

I use terpentine. It cleans out the lead. Comes out in slivers. A bronze brush and bore cleaner will get carbon. Toms.
