That's great results and thanks for sharing. Did you remove the baffles before shooting the cleaning pellets?
One great thing about the Hubens - no matter the power, they are easy to throttle back to the point this should work, given that you showed it does work at least at lower power.

Nope I left the gun completely as it is, the one thing I did do was when I loaded them I pushed them right to the front of the mag

Awesome,so just to confirm i can load cleaning pellets with a little ballistol right into the mag and they fire/work just fine?I got a 6mm(ou diam)x5mm (inner diam) polycarbonate tube and coated dewey rod and was going to feed pellets down the barrel through the tube and place them at the beginning of the barrel just on the other side of the mag to be sure..but i would rather just shoot them,wasnt sure it would work

Didn't think about that, next time I will soak a few with Ballistol then shoot some dry ones.

You won't get a 6mm tube down the barrel buddy for a .22 , it worked for me with the vfg pellets, I put them in the mag then pushed them to the front of the mag , i am using a 12fpe gun so you might have to turn yours down first if you have a full power versionAwesome,so just to confirm i can load cleaning pellets with a little ballistol right into the mag and they fire/work just fine?I got a 6mm(ou diam)x5mm (inner diam) polycarbonate tube and coated dewey rod and was going to feed pellets down the barrel through the tube and place them at the beginning of the barrel just on the other side of the mag to be sure..but i would rather just shoot them,wasnt sure it would work

Ps you might wanna wear ear protection because they go super sonic and always shoot in a safe direction with a suitable back stop

It’s a .25 cal GK-1…should be 6.35mm.But i would prefer to just shoot them through the mag if you guys are saying it works

Thanks for the confirmation
…i have the air venturi cleaning pellets,should be good quality.Upvote 0
Just to check, did you only need those 4 cleaning pellets to get a clean result?
I’m down like 50-60 of those pellets and it’s not getting any cleaner :/

Yeah - I've been using this method on my K1 and GK1 for a bit now. I usually wet one cleaning pellet in Ballistol or CLR and load it. Then I load a dry cleaning pellet behind it. I do 2 or 3 of these followed by a final shoot with just a dry cleaning pellet. Definitely enough to restore accuracy in a slightly leaded barrel.

To each his own. I see no reason not to degas, disassemble and properly clean the GK1. It is both fast and easy. It allows total gun cleaning, inspection and lubing as well.
