[QUOTE="25WSM, post: 1755526, member: 38048"] I use sweets and 50bmg/copper killer and they are extremely agressive. I have never had the finish on my stocks be affected in any way. I would be cautious on an oil finished wood stock. Also to the point of bore guides is they keep the slop out of your trigger. As a gunsmith I clean a ton of triggers from all that gunk that gets in there. Most cleaning agents turn to a sticky mess when they dry. Most of the time they are so bummed up that the trigger return spring can't set the trigger back and the rifle won't cock. And it gets worse when it gets cold right when hunting starts. Don't buy a cheap universal one. Get one that is chamber specific with the going up front these go a long way to keeping that action and trigger clean. Shep [/QUOTE]
