    Clean an air rifle barrel ? why ?? to stop it going rusty through lack of use maybe but personally I don't. Why throw away furry pellets ?? Just use them for plinking if you think they are going to be less accurate or give them to someone.

    My Ultra lost accuracy recently, it was all over the place, couldn't hit a bottle top at 30 yards zero distance.

    After a pull through with oiled patches and a few dry ones to finish it off, and 50 pellets to lead the barrel up, it was back to shooting spot on.

    It must have had a good few thousand pellets through it before it needed cleaning though.
