Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - How thorough should the cleaning be
Posted: 6/1/2003 12:48:07 PM EDT
I have a new XM15 M4 Carbine Bush, 3 trips to the range so far, less than 2oo rounds. They suggest at the range toclean after every trip. Should I clean just the bore, or everything. And what do you think of the bore snake cleanerAll help is appreciated.

I have the new Bushy too and the Bushmaster FAQ website says don't clean the bore until after 100-200 rounds and if you clean before that, it just prolongs the break-in period. The rounds fired polishes the inside to be nice and shiney! And the bore snake is just for quickness at the range IMO, it doesn't replace an actual brush, jag, patches and CLP.
