[QUOTE="fj40mojo, post: 433404, member: 19129"] I start with a foaming bore cleaner and a good long soak of 30 minutes. Then I dry patch that out followed by 6 or so patches soaked in a homemade concoction of aqueous ammonia and lanolin. I can hear some of you cringing but I don't leave it in the bore long term, after a short soak of 5 minutes I do 25-50 strokes with a bronze brush and more dry patches. At this point the bore is pretty well clean but I run a patch wet with my super secret sauce through the bore, if it comes out clean I'll run some dry patches followed by Kroil soaked patches down the bore to finish it, but if it comes out with traces of blue I'll repeat my 6 soaked patches and a 5 minute soak followed by dry patches and another test patch until everything comes out clean. I always finish by making sure to run dry patches through until they come out dry with no traces of secret sauce and then finish with a light coat of Kroil. [/QUOTE]
