[QUOTE="snox801, post: 2116909, member: 54383"] I do the same as many here. I made a quick call to boretech and they set me up with everything needed. All the stuff they ha e would be very hard to damage your barrels as they are softer than the barrel. As for how often. I clean them bare at the end of each hunting season. Then run oily patch down before storing for months. Then dry patch before shooting. After some practice shots I’m ready to hunt or target shoot. On mainly hunting rifle they make a whole season without cleaning till the end. Only way I’ll clean it is if I have long time a few weeks between hunts I’ll run a patch of eliminator through it. Other than that I wait till it start to lose accuracy then clean but that rarely happens as I shoot a bunch of different rifles so they only end up with a small amount of rounds a season. Maybe 100-150 then cleaned bare and stored [/QUOTE]
