[QUOTE="cfvickers, post: 501941, member: 25488"] I used mine in the rain all season, and I just wiped it off when I was done each day with a remoil rag. The finish looks brand new still. Except where I have scratched around the break trying to free it. By the way, you can just unscrew it and remove it. Not an advertised virtue, but one that I "learned". I keep it in place and closed to keep the barrel at 26 inches instead of 24.5. and it does effectively increase the barrel length when turned off with results you can see on your chrony. No problem by the way. I have dissected everything about this rifle and it is still as good as it was new on targets. I take care of all of my guns but I do not buy rifles to baby them, I baby a couple of very nice shotguns, but my rifles get used and in some cases abused in the field, it has held up well so far with more abuse and use than many rifles will see in a life time. The brake parts cleaner will cause the rubber coating on the stock to peal if you get it on there. [/QUOTE]
