How important is it to:
1. Clean your supressor.
2. Remove your supressor after every shoot? (If you aren't cleaning the barrel after every outing), I have learned that my groups have gotten tighter when I don't clean it religiously. I rarely put more than 15-20 rounds through when I go to the range.
I keep hearing conflicting answers from dudes in the know.

Supressor in question: SCYTHE-TI, on a Tikka 6.5 cm.

I rarely clean mine. Once or twice a year for an average shooter should be enough IMO. If you are shooting thousands of rounds I am sure it's more important, but a few boxes a month won't require a cleaning.
