LoneWolf, I use the Hoppe's Elite Bore cleaner....it almost feels kinda oily to the touch but does a great job on cleaning with out the harsh (explosive---LOL) fumes. Then after that, a dry patch or two, then I use MC 2500 oil, just a drop or two on a patch, then follow with a dry one twice....seems to season it quite well for the next cooking....LOL :lol::dry:

I love Hoppes #9.

I use it for after shave and the wife just loves it.

Hoppes is one of those smells from my childhood.

It was the first stuff my dad bought me to clean my .22

I still love the way it smells.

I like the way Hoppes smells as well. My wife does not share this feeling and cleaning guns in the house puts me in dutch, thus the development of my "gameroom". When ever the wife says that I am "hiding" from her and the kids in my "man cave", I remind her that if I could pursue my hobbies in the house, I wouldn't need a gameroom and a camp.

Hey LoneWolf, I have a question for you....on your video, I noticed your rifle does not jump much...how do you accomplish this? Mine likes to jump all over unless I put on my FUG and hold it down...maybe it is just the 16" barrel...I guess...anyway, just thought I would ask...

You need to get straight behind the rifle and apply forward pressure against the bipod. When done properly the rifle will recoil straight back and stay on target.
