[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1687470, member: 2736"] Clean is clean, fouled is fouled. Some like clean some like fouled and others don't bother with cleaning at all or until accuracy falls off. In my opinion, waiting until accuracy drops off is a waste in components and possibly wounded game. When I clean, I always go back to bright metal. the frequency depends on the use. for my hunting rifles I clean after 5 to 10 rounds. When I first started doing gun work I started working on friends rifles trying to make them shoot better than they did when new. Without exception the ones that once shot good for hunting and had gone bad, simply needed a good bore and chamber cleaning Stock contact was another issue but it was solvable. Some of these rifles took several days of soaking and cleaning before they came clean. There are many different opinions and you will hear them, so I will join Joseph and pop some corn and sit back and watch. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
