Exclamation Cylinder Cleaning

You can carefully clean the Cylinder and the rest of the Revolver,
by leaving Cylinder on.

Taking the Screw, Yoke, Cylinder off every time is just a lot of
wear and tear on those Components.

Unless you are shooting hundreds of rounds and the powder is
really dirty, I would just carefully clean.

When I go to the Range, I have several Revolvers with me. I am
very conservative, and will probably shoot two Cylinders from
each Revolver.

When I get home, I just carefully wipe the powder residue off
with a Make Up removal Cotton Round and full Synthetic Oil. I
also make sure the Cylinder spins freely.

Now when the Cylinder starts to turn sluggishly then I take the
Yoke/Cylinder off and clean.

To each their own, the Best to you and your endeavors.
