How many shots you all get with 777 before you have to clean? Isn't it after ever one but pretty quickly cleans?

Not having to clean with 209 but 1 or 2 times a year, every 50 rounds or so is worth a premium to me. Maybe even 30-40 cents more a round it's going to cost. Luckily I don't have to worry about that for a couple more years though.

I run a patch through my barrel after each shot when shooting 777; It is dirty!  If a shoot 20-30 shots through it at the range, I will do a full disassemble and do a very thorough cleaning.  In comparison, I will shoot 3, even 4 shots at time, before I run a patch through when shooting 209.

4 to 5 shots before I run a couple patches, I do the same when I shoot bh209 also. It's cleaner but I still have to swab it since bullets will get tighter

Saw BH209 is now $94.95 here in Yakima, and all sold out.  Unbelievable if you ask me
