Default Polishing the inside of you turkey gun barrel.

I read an earlier post about polishing the inside of your barrel. Here is how I do it.
For a 12 guage barrel: Get an old cleaning rod and cut off the handle. Put a 20 guage brass brush in the end. Wrap a piece of that green nylon pot scrubber material around the brush. Put some cleaning solvent on the pad.
Put the cleaning rod in an electric drill and clean your barrel. It will shine. Don't go too fast. Take your time. I don't know how abrasive this stuff really is, and I won't be responsible for what you do to your barrel.
It's your call. Anyway, it works for me.
For a 10 guage, use a 12 guge brush. Also if you can find a nylon bore guide, that will help.
