unloading tc triumph
« on: November 28, 2009, 03:06:25 AM »
Maybe a dumb question ,I don't know?
 After removing breech plug and dumping the powder, which end is the ramrod inserted in  to push out the sabot, the muzzle or breech??
      Thanks

Either end. It is usually easier to just push it through from the muzzle to the breech, you only have to move it a couple inches that way.

You should clean it anyways, black power and subs will still eat at the inside of the barrel. Even if not fired. I clean my gun after outting anyways, so why not just shoot it?

Even the slightest bit of powder residue left in the barrel will draw moisture, start to rust and pit the barrel in a short amount of time...or you can find out the hard way as many of us have had to do

What I  stated was taken a little out of context.
I always clean my MZ also , but at least  you don't have to clean the heavy residue if you don't shoot it.
I use BH209 so I don't worry as much. 
The worst part of unloading is the powder getting in the breech plug lube.

Cuts Crooked, Appreciate your advice, but my breech plug (TC Triumph) fits too tight. One wrap on the threads and I can't get the darn thing
in the barrel, let alone turn it.  Don't know if I have a tighter than normal plug or what.   :-\  Believe me I tried it.

OooooKay....I'm guessing "interupted thread" design?
