Default Cayugad's Swabbing Solution

Shortly after I figured out sabot rounds need to have the barrel swabbed between shots for good accuracy, I started using amixture of Windex with Vinegar and water (50/50). Got this recipie from the someone on the CVA board and have been pretty happy with it for a number of years.

Last week the bottle ran out and I decided to mix up some of Cayugad's recommended solution - Window washersolution and iso alcohol 50/50. Today, I shot the best group I have ever fired from my T/C Black Diamond XR - one hole about the size of a quarter with the 250 grain Shockwaves for five shots at 100 yards. Maybe I'm having a good day, I thought . . . . Pulled out the Omega and shot the best group it has ever produced as well . . .

Maybe there is some added element of consistency to this mixture, particularly the alcohol assisting in the drying of the bore? Anyway, thanks Cayugad. Never too old to try a different dance step.
