Why not maintain your rifle and keep your barrel in good shape
I know some guys that tried your method, after accuracy started going and excess pressures and dumped primers, barrels were threaded off and it took the reamer to clean the carbon out.
Not everyone shoots 20 rounds a year
Just my 2 cents worth
because some shoot better fouled or dirty....clean when required.

The new barrel may shoot better after some amount of fouling builds up.
Every barrel is different so see what it does and let your groups determine the frequency of cleaning.
kinda like a butt hole...itchy means more cleaning....let your poops determine the cleaning required....just had to put this into perspective to those who shoot 20 or more rounds a year.
