I came home late from a shoot one night back when I first got started again and...
I always keep one of my 45s in my nightstand loaded at home and so I loaded one and stuck it in there but didnt think about it not being cleaned and said no worries I usually clean them good the following week of the shoot. Problem is we shoot black powder blanks all weekend. They get cleaned every night of a shoot but not the night home until I get to it. Well I loaded it with defensive ammo and when I went to pull them out to clean the guns they were stuck and a mess. This was awhile ago and I had set them aside. So now I find them and have six rounds of 45 cowboy loads that are gunked with black powder and have no idea how to get it off safely. I tried wiping them with a bit of acetone which had no affect....any ideas on how to safely "clean" the ammo??
