ORIGINAL: XPatriot

I let the weapon cool down before each shot. Take a .22 with you to kill time between shots, it's good to practice anyway. I used to clean after every shot, but when I tried to document the difference by trying both, my result was the same. Now I skip the cleaning between shots.
I agree. I only do the cleaning step with a rifle that I know shoots to a different point of impact from a fouled barrel than from a clean barrel..... Most of mine DON'T, but I've had a couple that did......
