cleaning a Huben K1 barrel

[HubenK1Sniper92]

just curious if anybody on here uses cleaning pellets in their Huben? I love this rifle but cleaning the barrel is a chore taking apart the rifle to properly clean it, I assume I would have to take off the shroud/baffles before shooting them through so they don't get plugged up in the baffles, my current tune is around 70fpe also and not sure if that would be too much power for the cleaning pellets.

I am very much the same with slingers that "have" to be taken apart to barrel clean.
Found out: run some fishing line (I used 40lb monofilament)down the barrel. Make your line pretty long. Tie in a patch. Pull on out
@Hateful McNasty gave me some pointers on it

I have not had to clean my Huben barrel yet, May try the fishing line run through barrel. I am pretty good at taking things apart, Putting them back together is the hard part,

I think we are in the boat of "I don't want to take it apart"

I've simplified barrel cleaning on my K1s. I remove part # 62 and just the barrel. I know Gregor doesn't recommend this due to alignment issues, but I do it whenever I clean the barrels. Be sure to scribe alignment marks on the barrel and barrel housing base to assure proper alignment. It's usually just a click or two to rezero the gun. I also polish the barrel for extended cleaning intervals.

How often are or is recommended for cleaning

I use the tried and true, when my accuracy falls off it's time to clean the barrel.
