    Muzzleloader Help

    I just bought an Omega for my father-in-law. It should have come with a DVD that covers recommended cleaning. My father-in-law likes to use soapy water but I use No. 13 from T/C followed up by bore butter...works good. Edit: Oh and just because it says it is food grade does not mean it is...
