[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 1391675, member: 30671"] I guess evolving is how I would describe my cleaning process. I think we have to look at cleaning in the context of components, and what we are trying to achieve, how they are stored, how they are used, if spotters, and fouling shots are OK, or if the cold bore is it. I was started on cheap, military surplus, corrosive, .30-06 ammo, and cleaned with what would be considered medieval today. Not only the days we shot, but a couple of times during the week following. I'm slowly moving to the school of not cleaning until it tells you it needs it. Moving away from abrasives, and having some success with foams. I am a believer in cleaning between bullet types/brands. For the badly fouled I like the Outers Foul Out. Components have changed, as well as cleaning products, we should also. [/QUOTE]
