    Knew a old guy that didn't use his rifles for over a couple of years, he just uesd Hoppes no9 them & left them and he reckon no harm done, patched them out & shot as before. My pratice is to hoppies until clear then wet patch hoppes to finish, leave ethier muzzle down or jam a piece of handy towel, into the chamber, stop it running into the workings. Leave it like that and patchout when ready to use, can be amazing how much copper comes out first patch. Too dirty I repatch it out with fresh hoppes. Seems to work 3000 rounds down with a supressor the lands have moved 50th but still shoots fine.
