I use dial liquid soap and hot water to clean the barrel inside and out. Use a 1/2" bottle brush on a rod to clean the inside of the barrel and the nipple area. After cleaning and swabbing with dry patches a final patch which has had Bore Butter rubbed into it down the bore 2-3 times and the barrel is good to go. The furniture gets a good rub down and oiling and if your stock has a finish I use lemon oil furniture polish to keep the hand rubbed mineral oil finish ship shape. I own a .32cal. flint lock varmint gun by Track of the Wolf with a Green Mountain Barrel,a .50cal hand me down Flint Lock with a Damascus Barrel made by an unknown gun smith in Ky I don't fire any more, A .50cal.percussion Kentucky style of my own making which I have attached a picture of. It shoots real well if you aim at the top of the 12"X12" target at about 50 yards with a 65 grain FFG charge.I also own my original rifle ,a 61Cal Percussion Browning Import. I have had it for a long time and it has been rebored from a 54.cal.Don't be afraid to use soap and water but dry it real good and oil it liberally,better yet load it up and do some target shooting. Once a year fireing is no way to treat a prize firearm.JH
