[QUOTE="Buster Hemlock, post: 2012569, member: 109327"] Cleaning your brake is worth while. More importantly you should be removing the brake so you can make sure the crown of your barrel is clean. A lot of buildup can accumulate between your barrel and brake, powder residue, copper and cleaning solvent. All this acculturation of gunk left uncleaned can lead to some nasty effects on your crown and hinder accuracy. I've seen some bad rust and corrosion on rifle crowns from this when left unattended under a brake for extended periods [/QUOTE]
