Default RE: Barrel Cleaning Question For the Gurus

Thanks guys. I had a bore guide with my order too that I forgot to mention in my first post.

I started by running a brush down the bore probably 20-30 times, it had 2 really tuff spots right above the chamber that I could hardly get it thru. Then once it was movin thru the bore relatively easy, I ran a few wet patches of Sweets down the barrel, set the timer on my microwave for 12 minutes, then ran a few dry patches. Then I ran a few more wet patches of Sweets down an let it sit again for a while. Then ran a few dry patches, they started looking clean so I ran a few wet patches of Kroil down the tube and it instantly picked up some residue. So I went back to using Sweets for a while. After about an hour of alternating between Sweets, Kroil, brush, mops, it got to where there was nothing showing up on patches. Finally, I ran 2 wet patches of Kroil down, and called it good for the day.
