I would scrub it out real good with a nylon brush and some Hoppes #9 Solvent and then see what's what. But if it is pitting, be prepared to pay for a new barrel. I agree with the above assessments and just don't see T/C giving you a new barrel.

taylorhaught said:You may be right about T/C not covering the barrel. Not that it would change their minds about covering it, but I would think twice about buying anothe rone of their guns again. 50 rounds and pitting is not my idea of quality workmanship

I couldnt beleive how much crud came out of the "clean" barrel. Also, the "pitting" I was complaing about was indeed carbon and its gone now. I also used the Montana bore conditioner as well.
No more T/C cleaning solvents or bore butter for me
