Don - put me in the clean bore camp, not for any good reason except circumstance! I usually get the gun sited in, either shotgun or rifle depending on what state I am going to hunt, then clean it and have it ready to go the first morning. If I am travelling some distance or I have any question about the sight in being off, I will run a few shells thru the gun, then usually use a bore-snake to clean the barrel and be ready for the first day of hunting. I don't really know why I like to have the bore clean, a few rounds certainly won't make a difference. Good question though!<P>Doug
