[QUOTE="mrdinapoli, post: 2726464, member: 93495"] Two quick questions: 1. Bore Tech Eliminator and several other products say they will not damage the bore if left in the bore, and will also serve as a rust preventative. I am a little old fashioned, and have always removed it once done and then oiled the bore. Has anyone had any experience with this, and if so, how long will it protect? 2. I clean and oil my rifle bores after every use because I can not be sure how long it will be before they are shot again. However, there has been some discussion about not cleaning the bores for several hundred rounds or until accuracy falls off in some disciplines. In these case, is any bore treatment used — ie. Is the barrel dry patched to remove ash and dirt, and then oiled with a patch to prevent rust, or the bore just left dirty?? Thanks, Mike D [/QUOTE]
