How often or if any do you have to use your boresnake to keep the lands and barrel clean of debris and keep a clean shot. I have heard you have to do it every 3 to 5 shots so it doesn't mess up the lands. I shot it at 100 yards and 400 yards and had no problems. Shot about 75 times because I forgot my boresnake at home. Does keeping it clean help with longer lasting lands, barrel, etc. Or just clean the rifle when you are finished shooting for the day. Will it improve accuracy by keeping it clean every few shots or just a myth. Thanks
 
I read your post and thanks for the information. Just been a while since I have been back on here.
