Clean ammo?

At the range yesterday with my Ruger Blackhawk .357mag I brought the wrong ammo box and all I had was a box of Blazer Brass .38special 125gr FMJ (flat nose). We shot over 25rds at targets. Fair enough accuracy. But I thought there was going to be lots of carbon in the cylinder. I normally shoot some special .357mag reloads to avoid the carbon buildup.

At home when I cleaned the revolver I was amazed at the first patch as it came out of the bore with just some smudges. Same for the cylinder. I did followup using a brush in the cylinder with very little carbon showing up.
This is ammo made by CCI/Speer and seems very clean.

Do you have ammo that shoots clean? Or what's the dirty ammo you've shot?
