I have seen several posts saying to hunt use a fouled barrel. My question is does that mean to run a spit patch and then a dry patch and leave it that way until the season ends?
I never do that. For me it affects accuracy and I killed my knuckles once on the front sight of my Knight. I clean between each shot, at range with cleaner, 2 patches down, dry then 1 patch of light bore butter. In field, 2 patches of bore butter, both saturated "pretty good", may 1/32" of the stuff on a patch, smeared into the patch very well. Work the crud ring. I turn patch over. So I have a "major particles removed" fouled barrel. POI with first shot of a clean gun is same as POI with this method for both my Knight Disc and my TC Omega.
