Was surprised how far off I was @30 yards with a dirty barrel on the FX Wildcat MKII.
8 shots at each before and after cleaning

Funny how that works, discovered same thing when accuracy fell off. Now, a Ballistol/PatchWorm cleaning and verify fasteners are tight before any scope or gun adjustments. WM

Watched Steve's AEAC video on PatchWorm/Ballistol barrel cleaning couple times to get the hang of it. Should be on YouTube, "AEAC- Air Rifle Barrel Cleaning," if interested. WM

I've owned four original smooth twist barrels, still have a 600mm .25 Bobcat I've been shooting for years. The ST's I've owned were/are at their best cleaned every couple hundred shots or so...I can tell within a couple shots if it's time to clean...I use a crown saver or equivalent with MP-5 with bounty paper towels for patches...and will continue to do so as long as I have MP-5...lasts a long time. Consider this target...before and after cleaning the Bobcat's 600mm ST. My LW, CZ and Anschutz barrels aren't nearly as "clean/dirty" sensitive.
