I've always cleaned using buckets of hot soapy water and then hot clear water drawn through the barrel and breech plug with a cleaning rod and patches. I know that many people prefer to use modern cleaners on a patch. My question is: if you don't siphon some kind of cleaning agent through the breech plug, how do you clean out the channel in it?
Another question: I posted a topic earlier about patent breeches and one of the replies showed drawings of chambered breeches and Nock's patent breech. Does anybody have a drawing of a "non-chambered" or "non-patent" breech?
Thanks,
joliver
