[QUOTE="MW204, post: 2617144, member: 118876"] ThoroClean was the cleaner I was trying to remember in my original op. I have tried it in the 308 without any success, but I did not use a nylon brush. My son-in-law evidently hasn't been cleaning the rifle as it should have been. It didn't take long to get the copper out but the carbon has been a bear. Even after the CLR, it's still spitting out carbon on the patches. He told me about 2 weeks ago that he might have to get a new barrel, I told him if I can ever get the carbon out you'll have a new barrel. It is getting better, until 2-3 days ago whenever I push out a patch with whatever cleaner I used at the time the patch was solid black with carbon, today it's gray so I'm getting closer. I just wished the spots would go away and is why I made this post, I was hoping someone else had the same problem and they could tell me what they used to make them go away. [/QUOTE]
