I lied to you. Not Bore Butter, I cleaned with TC #13 bore cleaner then lubed with T17 seasoning patches. Sabots want to hang up going down the barrel. Usually about 3 times on the way down I seem to hit a tight spots. I ordered some Harvester Crush Rib sabots and they did load a little easier. With the Crush Ribs I can get a second load without swabbing. Third load...forget it.
