Congratulations, I really like my Sharps.

As to wiping sequence between shots, forget all that mixture mess. Sharpsguy (Bill Bagwell) method was to blow down the tube ( I do it after every shot) then run a tight cotton patch after the barrel fouling starts to hinder the loading process.

A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”
