Rust. Pits. Shoot first after normal cleaning. If OK, stop.
If not OK, stiff new bronze brush, fine valve grinding paste, coat brush, long full all the way strokes, reverse out other end, polishes/laps away nearly anything. 22 bullets are so soft and hollow based, they fill the bore as polished just fine. Avoiding roughness that makes leading is the goal.
The only way to shoot front and rear aperture sights is at a round black target off a bench rest.
