[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1447304, member: 2736"] I still have an arsonal of cleaning solvents and use most of them at different times because of the way each work. When I shot matches, I needed a very agressave solvent for quick clean up, and Sweets fit the bill. But after a match, I cleaned with a mild solvent and followed up with an oily patch. Now that I dont shoot matches any more, I am not as rushed and dont have as many rounds through the barrel befor it gets cleaned I like to use solvents without Ammonia like Boretec. For brakein i still like using Butches. And if I get a rifle that Is realy fouled, I still use Sweets until I get it clean and then follow up with Boretec. The point is, not all solvents are the same and should be used as the manufacture states to get the best results. Be sure and read the lable carefully and then decide if that solvent is best for the ammount of shooting before cleaning and how long you can leave it in the bore. Just a recomendation J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
