Hoppe's #9, a couple of wet patches on a spear point jag on a one piece coated stainless rod witha bore guide....... breech to muzzle for everything.
Brush through bore a couple of times. Clean chamber with a cotton mop, bolt with an old toothbrush and a rag.
'Nuther couple of wet patches.
Put in safe muzzle down overnight.
Wet patch, dry patch, wet patch, put away muzzle down overnight.
Repeat until the patches stop coming out blue-green. Then a dry patch and put away.
I use a scentless (or at least less smelly) solvent and oil before deer season.
Takes 5 minutes per gun ...... if we only shot a few rounds, the patches may come out clean on the 3rd day. If I went shooting prairie dogs for the weekend, it may take a week.
