My groups shrunk by more than half. Nothing to contaminate powder. I have even tried prep pads, works fine, just seems like the sabots are harder to seat afterwards for some reason.
Thats just for range time. When I get home, it gets cleaned like a regular weapon and put up. When I get it back out, I run a dry patch down the barrel, pop a primer or 2, then a fouling shot before loading the hunting charge. Has never failed me and I have left it charged for over 2 months. Left outside in my garage between the split seasons and late season here in Il.
