gun cleaning

[Mr. 16 gauge]

I use various solvents (mostly Hoppes & Shooters choice) to remove copper, lead, and powder fouling.....once the fouling is gone, I LIGHTLY coat the inside of the barrel with WD-40, and lightly wipe down all external metal surfaces as well....for lubrication, I use either graphite or one of the newer silicon sprays....it's less messy, doesn't collect dust & dirt while hunting, and won't gum up in extremely cold temperatures.
CLP is good, and I used to use it, but I think there are other products out there now that are better...
