Bingo. All my time shooting, the clean shots are all still inside the group area of the fouled bore group area. Every rifle i have gets cleaned after every use. I used to believe in the copper equilibrium idea and one rifle i had shot about 700 rounds without cleaning, another rifle 1500 rounds. I got the same groupings then as i do now that i clean every time.
Do whatever works for your satisfaction that you are taking care of your guns in your style of use.
