Title: Proper cleaning of your rifle - whatever type you might have
Post by: Old Dog on July 31, 2007, 09:33:39 PM
Rifle cleaning and maintenance.  No matter how well you can shoot, it won't do you much good it your rifle doesn't work, or you've ruined the barrel through improper cleaning.  Some people buy new rifles and get an owner's manual with the rifle.  Many of us (me included) aren't in the habit of buying new rifles for one reason or another.  For those of us who bought a nice used rifle here's a couple of videos I found.  Looking for more but this is a start.  Click on the link and it will take you to the video's:
