Thats good idea. I do it a different way because I usually have mine standing muzzle down in a closet or by washer or something.

Muzzle-down storage for rifles or shotguns is never a good idea. You can nick or dent the crown, compromising accuracy greatly.

I store my shotgun by the door, muzzle up, with a small sandwich bag over the end to keep out the dust and spiders. Works for me, same with the rifle.
