Would this be Cleaning too much?

...to clean my Mosin-Nagant until the patches come out clean? Like continuously running a brass brush soaked in Hoppe's and patches through it (5-6 passes with the brass brush, 4-6 passes with patches) to get all the past crud out of the barrel from the "previous owner". I haven't shot bit since the last time I cleaned it and a few minutes ago I did the above cleaning process and the first patch came out black as tar. Anyway, was just wanting you folk's opinion, I thought this might help accuracy.
