Nowi see I thought by using windex or water you just pour it downt he barrel i can deal with using the patches. So if it water solvent should i run the windex down then run some alcohole down it to dry it. Then hold the oil for storage after shooting. Good windex power caps sabots cleaning stuff seems like i need a big bag to store the crap in. Good thing i want a new tackle box and my current one is real big. IT should hold everything. I think i have everything in mind i will post a layout of my plan and you guys can tell me if it is ok or not.

If you are just starting it might be easier to start with a sub then switch to BH if you are so inclined.

I have shot a fair share of BH but I continue to shoot T7 just because of expense. If I were shooting forhunting only no doubt in my mind I would probably shoot BH, but I just go through powder to fast.

If you choose to go with T7 and that would be my suggestion, there is also a learning curve - how to deal with the fouling or as it is called the 'crud ring'. Some folks have a terrible time with this others like myself - really do not even notice it. Where or how it will effect you I am not sure.

If you choose T7 then in the beginning plan on running a slighlty moist patch after each shot to wipe the bore. I prefer to use regular old windex - it cuts/dissolves the 'crud ring' like magic.



Cleaning T7 is not a chore... a few windex patches will easily field clean your bore and then following anything that Cayugads suggests will finalize the project.... T7 resiude is water soluable - keep that in mind.

Let us know what you might do - we can all add a little help here and there....
