how many rounds are you running through it before you clean? What type of ammo?
There is not a lot of parts to clean on a shotgun. I shot sporting clays and skeet for years, averaging at least 200 targets a week, usually more. Most of this shooting was with a Remington 11-87 Auto and a Browning GTi. The auto would become finicky after about 100 targets. I would never drop thebolt and trigger group though. Pull the barrel, check for plastic buildup at the choke or forcing cone. Get a bottle of gumout or carb cleaner and hose it down and shake it out. Do the same for the receiver and bolt area.
If you have a whole lot of plastic build-up cut the t handle off a cleaning rod, chuch the rod in a corless drill and screw on a brass or ss brush soaked in your favorite solvent. Mine used to be xylene or acetone ( don't get this on a wood fore end tough.
