    if rifle has had abuse on days hunting,it will get maybe 3-4 lightly oiled patched down bore,then put away after a good external whipedown with oily rag.... been using breakfree for years and dont do the clean pacth before use thing...
    about every two years or thereabouts get all fancy and do the whole copper solvent clean....then go back to lazy couple of patches after use...as dont range shoot,purely meat/varmit hunter pin point isnt criticle for me,dont shoot past 350 so again not criticle.
    have cleaning rods with spear jags across antlers in reloading room...takes but a minute to whip a couple of patches through bore,no matter how tired I am, and can then sleep, knowing bore isnt deteriating.
    the rifle that just died after 32years of this treatment put 3 shots into group under an inch before my cockup...so cleaning method cant be all bad.
    I cant see diference in poi between really clean/de copperfied and dirty.....
