I leave mine dirty during the season ( It is only 3 days) and I only use black powder.From what I have noticed the synthetics have a harder time lighting out of a few of my guns, I also changed my nipples from #11s to musket caps And that cut down on the pops with no bang. I also figured out if it is wet and cold (not hot)a little vasaline on and around the cap help keep the cap dry enough to fire.It also helps with the clean up after it has been fired.

Used borebutter for yrs never a missfire. tried pyrodex one yr. Loaded gun for afternoon hunt, no shot goin in the mornin so left charge in, next mornin no shot ,decided to unload and it dindnt go off. Several caps later it went. Back to BP only. BP and borebutter you can leave a load in for a yr and it will go off.
Got to reading too much and decided to try balistol as protectant. Do some shooting, clean and swab with it. Couple days later swab with several dry patches load and no bang. Back to borebutter and no problems. Just my 2 cents :-) Sry so sloppy. getting tired time for bed.
