I've only been to that range once - and Zeb was there. Nice to meet him.
You can shoot a rifle Mr Trout.

Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.

I always run a bore snake down before shooting, don't like the idea of filaments of patch cotton left in the bore.
Bit off topic (sorry Grant), but imagine if Hornady, or Nosler, or Federal, or one of the other big brands made a deodorant or cologne. Im not talking stag piss during the roar, but something different that would let the ladies know that yip, he's definitely a hunter.
That would save all the "have to be a gentleman" at the start before reverting back to basic old feral. I reackon there's a business opportunity there somewhere.
Might ask the missus and see what she reackons
I used a Hoppes one and promptly got it stuck in one of my 22RFs. If the fowling is dry there is a good chance of this happening.
Also trying to remember if there are 22RF and 22CF versions. Mine is a 22CF.
I won't be pulling it thru a 22RF again!
I don't hunt now but used to carry a length of single core 7/.029 conduit cable. Outer PVC was skinned midway for about 30 mm. Just used to sepearte the cores and feed a bit of 4x2 thru. Worked a treat.
Used it on at least on occassion when I hadn't taped over the end of my barrel and got mud in the muzzle.
Otherwise, cleaning rods at home.
Bore Snake Buddy is the brand, make i use.Nothing flash,all they had in Timaru at the time of purchase.Doesnt seem to scour the bore out to bear metal.First shot near bullsize,close enough for deers.
