[QUOTE="Gene, post: 467164, member: 7402"] Good advice elkaholic. Some rifles shoot very well with just a little fouling remaining in the barrel. But every barrel should be cleaned occasionally. In competition, I do not clean between relays. After about 40 or 50 shots, match is over and I bring it home and clean. First Butch's with patches; then dry it out and finish with BT Eliminator on a nylon brush. If fouling persists, I will spary Wipe Out in it and let sit overnight. That stuff really works. Always use a good bore guide. After cleaning thoroughly, a few fouling shots will usually restore accuracy. [/QUOTE]
