I want to make sure I'm cleaning my Knights Ultralight correctly when using Blackhorn 209.

I'm using Hoppes #9 as the solvent, but I'm not sure if I need to apply a rust inhibitor to the bore after cleaning. And then if I do apply a rust inhibitor, should I run an alcohol patch through the barrel immediately prior to loading?

I clean it and run a wet patch of oil through it and pull it out of the safe next season. Never had issues.
