I wasn't taught any of those ways. I was taught when fowling barrels in BP to fowl w/ a primer ONLY. Then wipe w/ a wet patch then dry. Never leave any corrosive material. Primersare corrusive but not like BP. I have never tried fowling barrel tests. It usually takes 8-9 paches to clean when @ the range to get a clean barrel. When I hunt if I dotake a shot I do the very best I can that day to clean and usually have the tools except in rareoccations. At the range after the rifle is sighted inI will shoot several shots as back ups. Usually they all are good for a least the first three shots.
High powder rifles are different. I do as mentioned by others depending on the rifle.
Not the right way just the way I was taught....
