[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1565470, member: 2736"] I have not restricted my self to one solvent and typicality use one of three or fore depending on the needs and time requirements of proper cleaning. I use Butches Bore Shine during Brake in because it is recommended by my favorite barrel maker and relatively fast and for normal cleaning where I don't leave It for any length of time. For a realy badly fouled barrel (Some people never realy clean there rifles and they need to be cleaned back to bright metal) I will use Sweets 762. It is very aggressive and should not be left in a bore more than 5 or 10 minutes. For over night soaking I like the Bore Tech eliminator solvent (Sometimes I may not have time to clean it completely, and it is harmless to the bore But takes longer to do its job. There are other good solvents that can be used if you read the instructions and use applicably. Pick the one that best suites your cleaning method and timeliness. Some solvents say you can leave them in the bore for storing, I don't recommend this practice with ANY solvent, I like to totally clean and dry patch and then store with a good coating of gun oil in the bore. But A good dry patching is required/Recommended before shooting after storage. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
