I do basically the same thing but I use a different approach. I put a patch in my mouth, take a big swig of Jack Daniels, remove patch, swab bore, load and shoot.
It works great for cleaning the bore but after about an hour or so my groups tend to open up. I just can't understand it....

I wouldn't be able to see the target! I would be sleeping.

I tried that once playing darts

A gun is like a woman - you keep one around long enough, you're going to want toCLEAN it.

The alk. combos work great and it will clean a gun using BH quite well, what I would suggest is a bit of caution when it comes to final cleaning; alk. also clens all the oil out there for making the gun suseptable to what is call flash rust, a good oiling is indicated after using alk. Lee

The nice thing about alcohol patches is they dry very quickly, especially in a hot recently shot barrel. So after you swab you can then do a dry patch or two and the barrel is ready to load. I often will use pure alcohol in my traditional rifles but like the mix when a 209 primer is involved.

Here is another little trick I use in the field.. Go to the Dollar Store and buy a box or pre-packaged Alcohol wipes You get a ton of them little packets. Each packet is good for one swab of the barrel. Take a dry patch, open your little packet, and then lay that alcohol patch on the front of the dry patch. Swab the barrel down, take the cheap swab off and then use the dry patch to follow. You do not have to carry swabbing solution or pre made swab patches... Just put ten of them packets in your hunting coat. They will not freeze, you can clean your scope lens with them if need be, cut yourself and you can clean a cut, and swab a barrel if you have to.

Hey Cayugad, do they make any those little packets with a single malt Scotch??

Nope... they are worried they'd find you laying in the yard sucking patches.
