This expert-level analysis from a Lead Firearms Instructor investigates whether a dirty rifle barrel can remain accurate. The test involved firing 100 rounds through a new Thompson/Center Encore Pro Hunter in .308 Winchester without cleaning. The results indicate that while point of impact shifts due to heat and fouling, the rifle's accuracy actually tightened, suggesting barrel break-in improves performance and that excessive cleaning may not be necessary for all shooters.

This guide, presented by Stephen Kaleb and Caleb from Brownells, offers expert advice on diagnosing and resolving common rifle accuracy issues. It covers critical areas from shooter technique and proper scope mounting to barrel condition and ammunition selection. The instruction emphasizes practical checks like the 'dollar bill test' and torque specifications, aiming to help hunters and rifle enthusiasts achieve consistent 'hunting accuracy' before the season.
