CRC Brakleen.

I like simple. You can just use a a cleaning rod chucked into a battery operated drill, wisps of 0000 steel wool or the finest grit of Scotchbrite cleaning pad on a old bronze brush.

This is how one cleans the chamber...might as well do the bbl from chamber to muzzle.

ALWAYS have a choke tube installed when doing this - lest you really screw up them fine choke threads.

If time to inspect / maintain chokes: Remove and blast with CRC, ( cheaper than Gun Scrubber) , both the Choke and inside where threads are.

Apply RIG +P to threads , re-install choke , light film of RIG to protect bore....worry about it again in 2K rds...unless you are a choke changer....
