[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 584483, member: 2736"] With the advent of stainless barrels cleaning is not so much of a must like the chrome Molly barrels, But I clean more often than some because i like the consistency of a clean cold bore. I normally clean good just before hunting season and oil the bore, just before a hunt I will fire one shot,pull a bore snake through the bore to remove most of the powder residue and I am ready to hunt. After a few weeks and good weather I will clean before going hunting again. I feel that the carbon left in the bore is more abrasive durring firing than the brushing so I keep a clean barrel all of the time with no more than 3 or 4 shots through it at the worst. I have yet to shoot out a barrel using this process. PS: Just because the barrel is stainless does not mean it will not corrode left dirty. Just my way of maintaining the consistant accuracy.
