ATF, Ed's Red, Butchs, WD-40, diesel, Marvel Mystery Oil, whatever- just soak it good. I plug my barrels and fill from the breech with a solvent and soak it a while before I start cleaning. Copper fouling, corrosive primer residue and plain ol' dirt play havoc with the barrel. A bunch of the old military barrels have had decades of neglect. I'm sure you thought of this but I'll toss it in anyway. I expect to have a lot of fun shooting with mine. Besides that, with the cut down military stock, the longer 26" barrel and reciever soghts it looks like an old classic rifle. It should still be an excellent cast bullet plinking/small game rifle also. It should make a dandy hunting riflewith either cast or jacketed bullets. 358 Win velocity will in essence keep the pressure down into the M91s limitations. 35 Whelen finish reamer into the barrel to chamber and headspace it on the formed cases. 35 Whelen die to use 8x57 cases and basically make a. Maybe too spendy for some considering it's a M91 but I have one other option. The barrels are a little spendy but the quality is there. You have to turn some off the barrel shoulder to lengthen the barrel shank for a correct fit. The barrels come prethreaded for M93/M95 Mausers and it is the correct thread for the M91s. It wasn't hard to do and now the short OAL SWC loaded cartridges feed fine also. Feeding was fine with the longer nosed rifle bullets but with short pistol bullets I had to epoxy a thin cartridge guide on each side of the magazine well to hold the cartridges to the rear of the magazine. 01" and formed 20 cases to fit the "short" chamber to test fire. It is still short chambered as I hadn't found a finish reamer (anyone got one I can borrow/rent?) when I put it together. It has a Lyman 57SME on it and an M14 front sight. 35 Rem using the prethreaded/short chambered 26" Shilen barrel from Brownells before I got wrapped up in my last excursion to the Middle East. I have a 1891 argie that has been cut down some time in its past.thinking of a re-barrel project on this action.any ideas cal? ect
