I finally did it and bought myself a Miroku Winchester 73. It is a beautiful rifle that shoots very nice. I love it. I only shoot smokeless through it.
I usually just clean by boresnake. For more extensive cleaning I plan to take off the side-plates to clean the insides and then use a rod + patch for more intensive barrel cleaning.
I just do not see the use of taking apart the mag tube. It's not like crud can really get inside of it, right? Or is it better to clean the mag tube as well?
Love this forum btw. Had a lot of my questions answered in the past.
