    I clean mine when it starts to Miss stuff. Have finger size gongs at 50 and 100 off my deck. If You miss them it's time for a dung out.
    Wet pull through with copper solvent. Soak 1/2 hour then same again till no more blue stuff.
    Probably every 200 rounds but it is stainless and I reckon blued needs more often. Last year mine saw 20 something boxes of ammo thru it
    It's worn out a few suppressors so far but still accurate enough .
    "This is my Flag... Ill only have the one ..
