[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1989559, member: 1521"] I put away guns cleaner than I pull them. That's what I was taught. What the old timers should have said was don't go hunting -with any oil in the bore. That oil has to be burned out of the bore for stable fouling to take. To remove this issue, I take bores to white metal clean, wash with alcohol, and then dry pre-foul with a burnishing of Tungsten (WS2). This is the state with which I put guns back in the safe, ready for use. The first shot will be as good as any to follow. [/QUOTE]
