[QUOTE="Bruce Treloar, post: 1641121, member: 104002"] Before going on a hunt I remove the oil from the barrel, swab the chamber and smear moly grease on the locking lugs with a cotton bud. Only when needed, I camel hair brush the scope lenses and clean with an optical approved liquid spray and cloth. I always clean the barrel after shooting, never leave ii over night without being oiled . When I arrive home I fully clean making sure there is no copper fouling. Avoid harsh solvents like Sweets except for quick copper removal. If left over night chrome moly barrels will pit. Be aware, of the corrosion and pitting that will occur from burnt powder between the copper and the chrome moly barrel. I use 3 in One oil on a rag to wipe all the metal and swab the bore. Hope this helps the new shooter. [/QUOTE]
