Cleaning solution, my experiment
« on: August 18, 2025, 09:16:16 AM »
This is an experiment I decided to try.  Take it however you wish.
I mixed First Choice with about an inch long strip of Iosso into a small bottle with a couple small ball bearings to help mix and break down the Iosso.  The bottle is about 100ml.


This will be my new go to solvent for carbon and copper.


I looked at my barrel with the scope again today after shooting the Provincials this past weekend.  No copper or carbon at all in the grooves or on the lands.


I just ran 2 wet patches of straight Boretech or First choice to get most of the carbon out.  Wet a soft nylon brush with my solution and brushed back and forth maybe 14 to 16 times.  Let sit while I loaded with brush at the end of the muzzle.  Do about another dozen strokes after loading, 3 wet patches, dry, and oil.


The Thorro Clean and Flush works, but in the long run this is way easier on the pocket book when paying 30.00 US for a small cleaning solution kit.


Just an FYI.  I dont expect you guys to change methods but no soaking needed at all.
