Prior to a shooting session, run a patch saturated with alcohol through the bore to remove any oil residue and then a dry patch or two and go shoot.

And... before we get into the whole bore butter thing for the umpteenth time, I'll definitely agree with Lemoyne that it's a good patch lube but NOT a rust preventative. There are many, many other good products available to put your barrel to sleep with after a good thorough cleaning.

It's not even a good patch lube if you hunt in cold weather. It get's hard as a rock in cold weather. Even TC admits to that now.
