Default RE: round cleaning patch size??

How many of you when you patch a bore use two patches? I use two, so that the jag and patch is a really nice tight fit. I get my patches back that way and I can even see rifling marks on them sometimes so I know I am getting into all the right places...

maybe my store bought Rusty Duck are 2 1/2inch. I am out of them and measured the jar and then figured they would not have ran them the full 2 1/2 inches into it but I could be wrong... Actually I use scrap patches. I get them at Wal Mart and they come in strange sizes. I cut a chunk what I need, make sure I get a tight fit and swab away....
