Thanks for the reply. The gun does get wet during the season, so at least an oiled patching (then dry patching)is almost always necessary. Like I said I guess I am just being picky. I will shoot the gun before the season starts which is about 6 weeks long here and if I have to patch it I will either shoot it or say I am worriying about nothing because the first bullet will only be .5" off and I have never shot a deer past 105 yds. Northern Adirondack mountais=usually short shots.
