NP2 barrel cleaning

Just a heads up. After cleaning my NP2 barrel I noticed that the accuracy was still not as good as it can be. I pulled the baffle and it was really dirty. Not just the bore, but all the nooks and crannies, also. Used a .22 bore brush with Number 9 and cleaned the entire baffle. Then I blew it dry with compressed air. The accuracy returned, 5/8" at forty yards. Before the deep clean and after just a barrel clean, it was about 1 1/4" at the same distance. So when you clean your NP2 barrel, pull that baffle and clean it too!!!

That probably also holds true for the NP XL ...

I would have never thought to clean the baffle.
