I shoot a match or session and then usually clean rifle when im back in my shop. Usually no more than 40-50 rounds between cleanings. I clean with butches wet patches maybe a nylon brush if I use a heavy carbon powder. Thats with aftermarket barrels, factory barrels usually need cleaned more often and takes longer to clean up.
A clean barrel is a happy barrel. Some may need a few down the tube to come back in but not cleaning will get a copper and carbon build up that is not good for accuracy.
