[QUOTE="tankgijohn72, post: 1439584, member: 77441"] Really depends on how far you are shooting with it. If you hunt where shots are 100 or less the POI shift shouldn't matter much for deer hunting. At 200 yd it will. My data mirrors what ENCORE said. See below CVA 115 BHorn 209 275 parker match hunter CCI 209M. Round 1-1891fps- clean dry bore Round 2-1916 fps Round 3-1949 fps Round 4-2030 fps I don't clean at all during range sessions. I don't see loss of accuracy even after 25-30 rounds. I just try to be aware of it when hunting. I wont leave a loaded round in the gun more than 2 days if its dry outside. If wet, I remove the round/charge. I try to foul the bore with at least 3 shots before opening day. I generally wont clean it again unless it is wet outside. Most of my hunts are 5 days or less. I clean with foaming bore cleaner and a bore snake. [/QUOTE]
