[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 23575, member: 12"] Agree with all said. Important to keep carbon out of end of chamber and throat. Do something kind of different. I use the Bore Kleen plastic bristle brushes instead of bronze brushes. They have very hard plastic bristles that clean well and hold up. They do not wear down with use due to ammonia products, no damage to crown, last I do not get any "green" color from the brush itself. I was using one brush each weekend for each caliber. Not expensive but pain in the butt as the ammonia wore down the brush. The plastic is just as good and stays tight the whole time. Found that I can use the plastic brush to use ISSO for carbon and then Montana Extreme or Barnes CR-10 for copper. Important to keep brush and rod clean too. Wipe rod each time it comes out of rifle and then reuse. Have checked my barrels with borescope using this method and shows that they are clean and no damage. Plus it is easy. [/QUOTE]
