When swabbing at the range do you use a brush?
I was doing some shooting at a range the other week instead of my usual shooting on our land. Anyway, I had someone come up to me as I was swabbing my barrel with alcohol and tell me some story about how he used to do that, and had someone tell him that he was only making it worse. He claims that the plastic from the sabots gets melted and in the rifling and if you just try to swab the barrel that it will push the plastic further into the rifling. So he claimed that I needed to use my brush, but then he went on to tell me that he now just shoots it and worries about swabbing when he gets home. So what do you guys do? Do you use a brush? I could tell some of his story didn't sound exactly right, but I wasn't sure if the whole thing was bs or not.
