RE: Seasoning a barrel ??
It may be my 'newbie'mentality or a syndrome but I cannot go a day without looking at or stroking my guns so I get them out and run a patch through the barrel, and just well, you know....
Who knows when this will run out but for now I am inlove with my guns and I am sure no rust will form. I guess the reason I enjoy MLing is that you get to experiement with the loads so much and spend so much time cleaning, that your hobby lasts 'longer'.
