+1 to what dmazur said.
I would like to add the following:
Bore foam cleaner - spray in the barrel (from chamber end), come back later (for me, sometimes 15 min, sometimes overnight), 2 patches through, oil, 2 patches through, done.
Lately, I've stopped using the cloth patches. I've been using a smaller diameter nylon brush than the bore I'm cleaning (.243 brush for cleaning a .30 bore), wrapped with heavy duty paper towel (tear by hand 2"x5"). I find it more absorbent, durable, much cheaper, and always available.
Butch's bore shine - I've owned and tried several other common cleaners but keeps going back to BBS. It seems to clean much better and priced right.
