I recently got to start shooting my Savage Mark II BTVS 22, bolt action. It is developing an extraction problem that is common to this rifle. I believe my problem is caused by wax buildup in the chamber. Shooting CCI SV. If I clean the rifle I pay particular attention to the chamber and spend extra time with the bore brush there. I use hoppes #9 solvent. After cleaning the gun if it is fired it may start to balk at extracting in anywhere from 20-75 rounds. I need to remove the spent case with a finger or knife blade.
I was wondering if anyone knows of a product that I can swab the chamber with, occasionally, while shooting. The chamber is nice and tight and I like it that way so no reaming. Any ideas are welcome.
BTW, I've already perused Rimfire Central and nothing great there.
