[QUOTE="ajkellerusmc, post: 2611688, member: 108702"] I have a Thompson Encore and I patch the barrel after each shot unless I am hunting and the animal needs another round quickly. I found that muzzel velocity drops off as much as 50 to 100 FPS unless I patch the barrel between each shot, I verified this with a chronograph. When You are dialing your gun in, patch the bore after every shot so you maintain that consistent velocity. I am running Pyrodex magnum pellets with a 290gr Barnes TMZ at 2050FPS. I am now experimenting with Blackhorn 209 because some guru claims its so clean burning you can shoot 10 rounds without a swab, we shall see. [/QUOTE]
