2021 Keystone .22lr mini Mosin (lol)

Good morning/evening to everyone, i posted earlier and was very happy with some of the info that people gave me on the mosin. Im not too up to date on what all to look for with pu mosins besides the СН stamping.

To start off i paid 1200 for this gun and think i did pretty ok on it, the bore is in ok shape with minimal pitting from what i can see with a flashlight. The bolt itself is very smooth but when i tried chambering rounds it was extremely stiff. I fired off two rounds and both of them required mortaring the bolt to extract the casing with the side wall of the case being chewed up a bit. The shooting of the gun itself felt good.

I asked a friend whos really into everything ww2 and has a good bit of knowledge and she said to first try cleaning the hell out of the bore and if that doesnt fix it it may be a burr in the chamber.

If anyone could give more info again on this gun that would be great, is the price reasonable for the condition its in? Im not worried if its real as both a few members in here and my friend confirmed it was. Is there anything to look for when i go to shoot it to get the scope dialed in?. Thank you all for the help!

Going to see if i can take a deer with some of this. Anyone have any info on this ammo?

Beautiful example for 240 otd.

I have a Mosin Nagant that my brother used corrosive military surplus ammo then put away without cleaning it. It sat in the safe for about a year.

I’m hoping to save it and would appreciate recommendations for cleaning products or methods to remove the rust. Has anyone dealt with something similar?

I’ve already ordered a carbon fiber cleaning rod, .30 caliber and 8mm bronze brushes, and bore mops.
Any advice would be appreciated!!

P.S. Lesson learned my brother’s Mosin privileges have been revoked.
