Old E residue

[Dan Cash]

Though I did not get to the Big Hill Little Gun Big Gun match earlier this month, I have been shooting a fair bit with the Old E and having very satisfactory results. The brown cleaning residue has not made its appearance. Temperatures have not been nearly as high as they were when last I noticed the brown residue. I have tried cleaning with city type tap water, my very alkaline well water and my regular cleaning solution of tap water with wetting agent added. None of the solutions produced anything but a normal looking cleaning patch. This phenomenon may be a result of verey hight temps, both air and gun. Time will tell.
