    I run my rifles the same way LT does.
    I am lucky with 2 barrels that shoot POA cold and clean from the get go.
    I have one that takes between 5 and 10 to settle.
    Cold and clean is slower than fouled in all my barrels but it is usually predictable.
    I only clean when I see accuracy wain or between 100-150 rounds.
    Always clean and oil before storing for long periods. Never store with suppressors on.
    A lot of people overclean their firearms.
    Every rod or pull thru down that barrel is decreasing the life of it. I rather the projectiles do it.
