Blackhorn 209 - Cleaning Regiment

[yule]

Hey Guys,

I shoot 99% rifle powder and very little BH209. I am setting up a gun for BH209 and want to hear your cleaning regiment. If I go to the range and shoot 6-8 shots, how long can I wait before cleaning? I would like to be able to wait a week, until I am through hunting. Is that OK?

Thanks

Run a dry patch when you are done. That will remove the bulk of the fouling. If you are in a humid environment i would not go that long on a fouled bore. 2-3 is about as long as ive risked it. No issues.

I believed the hype the first time I used it and waited a week and had significant corrosion. Thankfully no harm done. I clean the day I shoot it usually and by the next day at the latest now.
