My experience mirrors that of Sabotloader. Downloaded them many times after a downpour. If the breech of
my CVA guns was protected the chargestayed dry.In the closed breech Encore the charge wasalways dry.

Have a lot of confidence in the ability of sabotedloads to protect the gun from moisture and have often left my guns loaded for extended periods of time. After araini run some dry patches down the bore followed by a patch moistened with Rem Oil.

My Encore willhuntevery weekend through December 14th.The gunwill stay loaded until i get a deer or hog. One of my guns was loaded in June and was not fired until about the 8th of October.Itfired great and the pointof impactwas where it was supposed to be.
