I bought this little rifle about a year ago, and it's accurate as it can be, but I've noticed over the past couple of weeks that it was losing accuracy. God only knows how many pellets I've shot through it, so I decided to try cleaning the barrel. I used some De-solvit and ran patches through 'til clean, tried shooting it, and it seems to have worked like a charm. Glad it appears to have been a maintenance problem rather than the gun. Will it require another break-in period since I cleaned it, or is it pretty much good to go? I've read differing opinions on whether break-in just applies to new ar's or also to those which have had the lead residue stripped out of the barrel.

Mine didn't need to be cleaned but I did it anyway because I was in the process of cleaning all my guns... Just shoot yours a few times until the Point Of Impact settles and you're good to go... It didn't take mine too many shots to re-lead...
