If you'd bothered to note the groups I've posted, you might figure out that I get quite good results without all that fuss. IF this board would accept more than one picture per frame, I could show you alot more-I'm talking about RESULTS, not theory!

However, I DO clean my rifles - only after each shooting session, not after every shot!

About the only part of your post that I agree with is your statement that this discussion has become pointless, since people of both positions are not going to change their opinions based on anything anyone says here.
