Hi, You may, if you can get in there, want to sent a .22 bore brush in that chamber. First dry, then with bore cleaner then felt then oil. or, dry then felt then R.I.G. (rust inhibiting grease) I had a budy who would re-use his brass. Do not use cooking oil, as it can heat up in the chamber and gunk things up. He used to use cooking oil for his reloading machine.
