I'm kinda new to airguns and have a few questions about cleaning.
First off, is it a good idea to clean your airgun before shooting, and is there anything bad that can happen to your gun if you don't?
Second, since I really cant use a traditional cleaning rod in this gun, I tried feeding some heavy test fishing line down the barrel with a patch attached, but since the line is curled, it keeps getting caught in the moderator at the end of the barrel. Has anyone had this problem and how did you overcome it?
Third, about how often does everyone clean their PCP guns?
Fourth, what about cleaning pellets? Do these work and are they worth the money?
