[QUOTE="Guest, post: 51713"] Hi, Glad to have you with us. I assume that you're talking about a new rifle. DK's comments are very good, and he has way more experience than I. I normally clean the bore and chamber after checking the function of the action and a through (sp) visual inspection of the bolt. I clean with Hoppe's #9 until it appears clean on the patches, then I load it up with the solvent and let it sit for about 15 minutes. If the patch has ANY blue on it, then I get out the Sweet's 762 (copper solvent) and scrub somemore. When clean, I wash the Sweet's out with more Hoppe's, and patch dry. I then start my break-in proceedure, which I do if the gun is new OR used. Hope this helps a little. C'ya. John. [/QUOTE]
