[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1689300, member: 10291"] My 6.5x47 PRS and Eggshoot rifles will hold group size, ES, and POI for as many as 300 rounds. I haven’t shot much past this amount before cleaning. It is likely more , but I will generally clean every two matches, approx, 200 rounds, more-so just to also clean up the chamber area and muzzle brake. My hunting rifles are rarely, if ever shot more then 100 rounds in a season, less in practice sessions. Unless subjected to moisture, I will clean them at the close of the season. I haven’t really taken my hunters more then 100 rounds before cleaning , but within this shot count they hold accuracy, ES, and POI perfectly. These rifles are 6.5x284 and 300WM. A note with both my competition and hunting rifles. As for the barrel, I see little difference in cleaning time, number of patches, or residues whether cleaning after 25 rounds or the max stated above. [/QUOTE]
