    So this is a question to all the people that have the 'clean the rifle when accuracy degrades' attitude (200+ rounds between cleanings).

    What do you guys do if you shoot in the rain?

    I have been cleaning my rifle every 250 rounds or so, and its been working out good. However, I'm not quite sure if a cleaning is required after it rains, or do you just run a patch with a little bit of oil through?

    Moisture=rust. Rusty bores and fcgs are bad. Oil prevents rust. Full clean not required.
