I use a bronze or nylon for caliber bore brush with Shooters choice and scrub the bore 3-5 times. After I wash the bore brush in warm water and wipe clean, then let it dry.Now I run patches with shooters choice to remove the powder and carbon fouling (black residue). NowI remove the copper fouling with patches of either Sweets &.62 or Barnes Cr10, then use a different for caliber bore brush and scrub it 3-5 times and follow up with patches of the CR until I stop pulling blue. Wash the bore brush in warm water, wipe and let air dry. Finally I finish with a lightly soaked patch of BC Sheath followed by adry patch to remove any excess solvent and a finish withsaturated patch of BC Sheath. I then place the rifle in my gun cabinet on a rag or some patches muzzle down to eliminate oil running back into the action. Prior to usage I run a patch through the bore to remove excess oil.
