Hi,
I just got my first BP rifle - a Lyman .54 Trade.
I've been shooting cap and ball revolvers for about 6 months and am used to doing a detail strip after every range session to get all the fouling out.
Just wondering if I need to remove the lock on the rifle after each range session? The Lyman manual doesn't mention it - just says to remove and clean the barrel. Seems like fouling shouldn't normally get under the lock plate, but I wanted to ask the experts.
Thanks,
Joe
