[QUOTE="jrock, post: 941097, member: 78569"] I use to clean my gun religiously after every shooting session because I didn't know when the next time I would use it would be. It was very frustrating to take clean cold bore shots and see them miss time and time again. Listening to words of wisdom, I am now finding the minimum number or shots to get the zero back and how many shots it takes before the accuracy degrades in each rifle. So far, I've noticed each gun is different. I now can go to sleep knowing my rifle will be zeroed when I pick it up again. This season, I plan to minimally foul my barrel and not clean it until the season is over. [/QUOTE]
