I saw it mentioned here on the forum. Does it require less scrubbing? Im wearing out brushes and my arm too! With my cleaning quest.
Bore tech C4 for carbon.

I always start my barrel cleaning regimen with some carbon solvent. Mainly Slip2000 Carbon Killer but I did get some C4 recently. The time I tried the C4 I didn't think the patches came out as black as the CK, but I'm still not convinced either way. I truly love the Boretech products so I'll give it another chance.
Soaking a carbon fouled AR bolt in the CK does save a ton of scrubbing!

Rifle I cleaned 3 so far. My Savage axis is the worst so far. I tried Mothers polish today. It's working too.

For the tough carbon build up Iosso paste is very good, follow the instructions of course.

The losso and JB bore paste is what gave me the idea to try the Mothers. Im starting to see bare metal now. The fouling is on the lands. I would think it would have been caked in the groves.

Does your normal routine include a bronze brush ?

Yes i find them to scrub better than the nylon ones. PS the axis is about done.
I used to have some Slip 2000 Carbon Killer, and it worked well, I've been using C-4 lately and like it, but I still have to use a bronze brush, and JB on patches or those felt dohickies to get the heavy carbon out. Maybe if you let it soak a week, but who has that kind of time.

Im working on my 770 30.06 now. The carbon wasn't bad in it.Hoppes elite worked this time. I do have blobs of lead. I think it's from them coated bullets i had bad smoking with. I put kroil in the bore last night. I'll be working at it soon.
