I hunt with a fouling shot first.I have a couple spots where I can stop before I get to my hunting area and fire a blank round,that is, a wad of paper towel or rag over 50-60 grains of powder fired carefully(not towards any bush or timber) into the ground about 30 feet away. If the weather is dry,I will leave it for another day.Any moisture in the air and it is cleaned and the process repeated the following day.Whether or not you do this is up to you but I have never had a misfire.
