I bought a used wildcat that the previous owner said was barely used and it seems I got one of the barrels from late 2015 (My action is dated 12/2015) that fouled quite quickly. I'm not sure yet how often it needs cleaning because I just cleaned it with a couple ballistol patches and followed up with dry patches though it didn't remove all the lead. This barrel def. has potential, I stacked 3 pellets at 75 yards and 2 more were just 1/2" out and it will shoot 1/2" at 50 yards regularly.
My question is for those that had these same barrels with the fouling problems previously. Did AOA/FX replace your barrel or did you just polish it and keep shooting? I'm not saying I got a bad barrel it just bothers me to look down the muzzle and see lead build up. Never experienced that with any of my other guns, ever.
Also will AOA sell spare parts for the wildcat? I'd like to get the updated trigger linkages and a new endcap for my shroud if they do (maybe even a replacement barrel if I can't get this one sorted). I have emailed them and called numerous times but never get an answer. Just wondering if it's even worth it to keep trying.
