Hi everyone, I wanted to check, I usually run a patch or two of boretech rust xp in the chamber and bore to keep rust away between shooting sessions. Are running dry patches enough to clean this out for another session (at least 2 weeks after rust xp application if not more) or should I run patches of mdt gun cleaner a few hours before a range session to flush anything out? Want to make sure I am not increasing bolt thrust accidentally.
 
Dry patch after storage.
Shoot the rifle to confirm zero.
Go hunting.

Never do anything to the chamber or bore while out hunting or between hunts, unless you have a mishap or something.
Finger cots and or super 88 electrical tape over the muzzle is what you should do when out there hunting.

If you have a mishap, do what you gotta do, but frankly that’s why you have a number 2 rifle ready to fill in, till you can foul your other rifle.
