Here's how I clean my .22 revo. I don't think this'll work for the .357. Youll need something to remove leading or copper fouling from the bore. But for the .22, this works for me.

EQUIPMENT:
-.22 Bore Snake
-Cloth
-Can of G-96 or CLP
-Newspaaper

METHODOLOGY:
1. Spread newspaper.
2. Lay Bore Snake on it.
3. Spritz end of bore snake with G-96 or CLP
4. Pull Bore Snake from forcing cone through muzzle, repeat 3 times.
5. Pull Bore Snake through each chamber once. Twice if you shot a lot.
6. Spritz the cloth with G-96 or CLP.
7. Use the cloth to clean/lube clyinder face, cylinder star, ejector rod, under cylinder star, top strap, and all other metal areas.
8. Put stuff away.

Takes maybe 5 minutes. Once or twice a year, take the grips off and clean the innards.
