[QUOTE="hawk45, post: 1988397, member: 27634"] Rifles that like to run fouled I run a dry patch, an oiled patch and a dry patch. I'm not doing a full clean only to have to burn through 20 rounds to get them back to the right seasoning. Rifles that like to run clean I do the full boat. So it really depends on what state your rifle prefers to be in when you break that first shot. I'll touch them up a few times a year if they aren't getting used after inspection. Always a dry patch before use, inspect and screw check. It's good to get in a shot or two a few times a year and log shot placement to see if things are still on point or if starting to move. Gotta love the minutiae of ballistics, it's such a deep hole. [/QUOTE]
