Default barrel maintenance

Lots of interesting thoughts regarding barrel maintenance and accuracy on here. All good procedures and obviously they all get the job done.
My questions are.. how much time ,on average, do you spend on barrel maintenance? Do you oil the bore after cleaning? Do you brush? etc.

I'm seriously looking for a simple method of keeping my bores clean without spending an unreasonable amount of time and effort to accomplish the task.
Currently I'm using Wipeout and a Bore Snake with a patch but I have seen it mentioned that is not the preferred method. I have some pretty decent barrels and I may be doing something that is causing more harm than good in the long run. The main question is.. Is Wipeout detrimental to barrels?
