Easy.I don't hunt in the rain.Hunting is suppose to be fun and having cold water run down my neck isn't. From my experience, animals don't like it either and tend to hole up until it stops. I do tape the barrel though. Electricians tap. Keeps all the debris out and late season snow that may fall out of trees,etc. And if you happen to stumble and the muzzle goes in the dirt, chances are the tape will keep it from going down the barrel.

If God wanted you to walk and carry things on your back, He would not have invented stirrups and pack saddles
