[QUOTE="rewiltshire, post: 1796284, member: 53629"] I don't shoot a muzzle loader much any more, but I shoot BPCR. I run a wet patch then a dry one after every shot. After my last shot of the day I run a wet and dry twice, and another wet, then leave it wet until I get to the real cleaning time. What I use for a solvent is a 50/50 mix of water and water soluble machine cutting fluid and then mix that about 60/40 with antifreeze. Got that from a bunch of "old timers". I shoot real black powder, not Triple Seven, Pyrodex or Blackhorn. But I use to clean my Hawkin Rifle by taking the barrel into the shower with me. Hot soapy water works great. And I shot Pyrodex in that. Juts make sure you get it thoroughly dry and put some oil on it. Firearms worst enemy's are rust and politicians! [/QUOTE]
