I clean ALL my BP barrels by pouring 2 quarts of boiling water through the bore, followed immediately by swabbing with four or five clean dry patches. Then, when the bore is cooler, I swab it with a patch saturated with Birchwood-Casey Sheath. This treatment absolutely prevents any bore rust. And, you don't have to swab the preservative out of the bore before you can load & shoot again-the Sheathdries up, leaving a dry protective coating in the bore.
=================================
So all this time, I've been removing the B-C Sheath from my bore when I first arrive at the range & you've found that to be unnecessary? You say this stuff's base is not oil?
Do you realize what you've just done Elde?
You havejust given me another good excuse to tell the wife that I need to get backto the range a few more times to test my first shot placements.... lol
