RE: Patches
That is all I shoot... I get the blue strip pillow tick at Wal Mart. $3.69 a yard. That will make you more patches then you can shoot off in a year, and that's a lot of patches for me. I throw that in a washing machine when doing other laundry. But be sure and line dry it. Or it will frizz on the edges. This washing removes the sizing from the material and allows it to then absorb the patch lube better. I then tear a strip off as needed. Lay that over the muzzle. Set the ball in the material and drive that under the muzzle. With a pair of cheap scissors I cut the patch away. Now I have a perfect centered patch every time, identical almost each time to the one before. I started doing this years ago and it tightened up my roundball groups. Also it was cheaper and actually easier for me. When hunting I just cut the patch away with my knife...
