Sunday , after hunting period finish,my son in law,brough his Muzzleloader to be clean ,on my recommendation.
I pass bore cleaner,copper cleaner,and after almost 3 hrs and over 40 patches,was still not satisfied with the barrel cleaning.I hate to pass bronze bristles in a black powder ,fianly after almost one hour of work I could see the barrel inside bright and clean.Pass a patch with tripple7 1,000 lube grease and th patch exit all dirty ,I had to work an other 1/2 hour to have clean patches .
I found out that many hunter pass a wet patch and a dry patch and when the patch seem "almost" clean, they store their rifle for winter.
Seing his rifle after the cleanup he ask me to clean all his rifle.
Have you seen such hunters?
