    Cleaning a Filthy shotgun barrel??

    Brought a new old double hammer gun in the weekend
    Its a very nice gun locks up nice and tight
    I only problem is there’s are fair amount of pitting in the barrels it’s not the worst ive seen but certainly not the best
    Still plenty shootable though over all excellent condition for a 120yo gun
    Anyway i am cleaning the barrels and after a good 10 cycles of hopes no9 brushing letting it soak patching out and repeting the patches are still coming out like this
