If it's a regular then I just while it down and run a patch down the barrel.

I may give it a few practice shots to confirm zero

I never run a patch down mine before hunting. I verify zero then leave it dry.... tape the muzzle in inclement weather... an oiled/wet bore from a patch will change POI
Yes Sir I am aware of that. I was not clear on the patch process. I store my guns with a well lubed barrel. So when I say I just run a patch down it, it is a dry patch to remove any excess oil.
