How Long Can One Leave The Charge In?

There was a guy came up to our cabin last year with his T/C Hawken percussion. He said he had left the charge in since last year and it went off and hit where it was supposed to. This is extreme and I definately wouldn't recommend it.

I use finger cots from the drug store most of the time.
Cheap and for the most part effictive.
I also got some of those ultimate bore protectors and they are much thicker and tougher than the finger cots.

My wife is also a Nurse and she brings me (finger cots) as mentioned above, I have yet to try these but other members use them regulary with the same results, Im sure there as good. But I like the look of the tape better.

I have left mine in for a month of hunting in Iowa snow weather and no problems. Just cover the barrel with a couple layers of saran wrap and rubbler bands or use the ones they sell. Never had a problem yet in 10 years or more. That is with a modern muzzle loader not the older style.
