Rain down the barrel?

make a wooden tampon

Or use the real thing. I have a tampion for my 1864 Springfield.

Have you ever shot with the tampion still in the muzzle and, if so, what was the affect on accuracy?

Deer Creek products has the muzzle covers and the rings to water proof the caps.

Unfortunately you need to remove the tampion before firing!

Joe, easier said than done when a 10 ptr. walks out. One advantage of electrical tape is you don't have to think about it.

Tape over the muzzle keeps out weather and mud. The air pushed out ahead of the ball or bullet blows the tape away. Some people use balloons or other devices for a cover.

Same here. I use electrical tape. I also use it on my unmentionables as well.

Some claim the gun develops an attitude, but it can be resolved using midol as a buffer.
