I use to clean my m/l at the end of the season and protect it from rust with wonder lube. Usually would get it out time or two in summer but not always. The times I didn't shoot it in summer I got some rust when I wiped the barrel out before fall sight in time. I read here or somewhere that seasoning the barrel was BS. I decided to protect the barrel with oil and have no more rust even after setting in my gun rack till next fall. What say ya'll, oil or no?
