[QUOTE="Shane Lindsey, post: 2358862, member: 25831"] I tried the "not clean" a rifle thing and it sat for about 6 months in the safe. Pushed a patch through and it came out orange...Don't do that anymore. I clean mine. That said I map my cold/clean, cold/dirty, etc. to know the condition/predict first round impacts and then foul them for hunting season. Living in Florida, I wouldn't let it sit long before shooting/cleaning it again. I think the "don't clean it" camp shoots often enough that it doesn't affect it. Carbon is like a magnet to moisture in your bore. Dry air probably get away with it longer. My Virginia air likes to turn metal orange. [/QUOTE]
