Question About Swabbing Between Shots...
« on: October 23, 2007, 11:27:40 AM »
Got a new Optima coming from Cabela's.  When sighting in, I plan to swab the bore after every shot, for consistency. 

For those of you who swab after every shot, do you swab from the muzzle end, or do you remove the breech plug and swab from the breech?

Thanks.

I swab the barrel on my optima elite from the muzzle between shots for the same reason. I do not remove the breech plug at all while shooting. I wait until I am done shooting to remove the plug. I have never had a problem with a misfire when doing so.
