pronounced in the constriction area of the
choke and just forward of the chamber, are
caused by leading.
A normal amount of leading can be
expected with today’s high velocity loads
and improved wads but this is not serious.
If leading should become heavy, it can be
removed with a brass bore brush. Spray
the bore or the bore brush with a good
powder solvent, and scrub the bore until
leading is removed. To prevent brass
bristles from breaking off, the brush should
be pushed completely through the bore
before being withdrawn.
After leading has been removed, the bore
should be wiped dry and then a lightly
oiled patch run through it for preservation.
If the gun has been exposed to dust, dirt,
mud or water, the principal working parts
should be wiped clean and lubricated with
a light film of oil. Browning Oil is

The magazine tube on the B

wiped clean of all dirt and grit, and then
lubricated lightly with an oiled patch.
Reassemble the barrel and wipe all
exposed metal surfaces with an oiled cloth,
