Cleaning-patch material ain't gonna cut it.
Go to the fabric store with your calipers. Head to the pillow ticking section and check
for 100% cotton. Pick up a yard of 0.015" and another yard of 18-20 thousandths.
Cut a strip of each that's five colored-stripes wide.
Try each using saliva as lube, not Crisco or anything else for now.
Drive ball even with the muzzle using short starter, then cut patch flush w/ sharp knife.
Use 60gr FFFg
Patch should be "smoothly-hard" to seat to the powder firmly.
Wipe barrel 2X with a damp (not wet) patch between shots.
One or the other of the ticking materials will work better.
At 25 yards, all shots should "roughly close" to touching each other.
