[QUOTE="sniperVLS, post: 74118, member: 3883"] you'll get 50 different responses to this, everyone does it differently. With my VLS I cleaned every 3 rounds for the first 18 shots, then cleaned every 5 rounds until I got to 38, then every 10 rounds till I got to 58, then I shoot until accuracy drops off or theres down time to fill [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] in those 58 shots thats 12 cleanings. Ill be honest though, my dad and uncle have given me rifles to take to the range just to see how they shoot. No such cleanings took place and years later they shoot just as good. I might do the cleaning process again with the Sendero when it arrives, but that might be for peace of mind more or less. just dont overdo it. its an easy trap to fall into and its no needed in my opinion. I know some guys who clean(no offense people) religiously, several times a day, all the time. They clean more than they shoot, and I dont know about you, but I bought my rifles to shoot [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]
