When wiping the rifle down externally with Legia spray or the like, don't forget to run the oily rag between the barrel and the fore-stock to dispel any moisture/debris that may be present there. Just because it's not easily visible doesn't mean it's not present.
I was enjoying the video until you said you don't recommend bore snakes...I totally disagree....Hoppe's bore snakes are excellent. Once used a few times, bung them in the washing machine. They come out like new. They're very handy for use in the field too. Not just in the reloading room. You're entitled to your opinion, but in this case you're very wrong.
Good for a quick field 'clean' to prevent rust. But there will always be a lot of fouling left in the barrel after use of a boresnake. That's just a fact. Get some patches through after cleaning with your boresnake and you'll see how much fouling is still in the barrel.

Excellent video. That really simplifies the process that I thought is overwhelming.
