Thread: CCI Standard Velocity problems

@Beetroot

Very good advice and much appreciated.

Yes I did give it as good a clean as I can, but it a Gunworks rimfire suppressor which is a sealed unit. I can't get into it as it appears the end caps are glued on. I called Amanda and she talked to the gunsmith and he said "it doesn't need cleaning". I respectfully ignored that and routinely run a .44 cal bronze brush through it, which is all I can do really.

I did get some serious crud out of it, including a ring of solid carbon that had obviously built up around the first baffle's hole.

But it didn't really seem to work. The terrible run of shots from 3 nights ago were shockers. The flipside is that I just got in now, having shot five magpies in five shots between 70-90m, not a single crack, all bang on. That's the way this batch runs, it will be fine then suddenly... not fine. Drives me mad.

What can I soak the suppressor in to try and clean it better?

(I'll also add that the very first shot out of this batch of 1,000 went supersonic. Followed by every third or fourth shot thereafter. The day I opened the box. Felt unlikely to be a coincidence.)
