I haven't heard of them building in a shotgun barrel, but I have had the buggers plug up two new spare rifle barrels. Just about ruined one of them.

I have had to start plugging up anything with a 1/2" hole or smaller. Perhaps after your post I will start covering anything that is 3/4" or smaller.

I have a running list of things they build in:

1. any air tool port or quick change coupling.

2. drain hose from automobile air conditioner evaporator.

3. Some threaded and unthreaded holes in my tractors.

4. any unused holes in my lawn mowers.

I am surprised they were able to find their way into the bag and build in your barrel. After your warning in the future I think I will double check anything or else put a twist tie about any bag or use heavy duty aluminum foil either over plastic or under it.

P.S. I have had spiders build some silk or crap in one or two of my barrels in the house. I try to remember to put an oil soaked cotton patch in both ends now.
