In the last year I bought two revolvers that had some lead build up. One was a Model 29 that had a moderate amount of lead fouling in the forcing cone area. I scrubbed and scrubbed and scrubbed with a bronze brush dipped in Shooter's Choice but couldn't get it all out. I took the gun to the range a couple of days ago and ran 36 round of JSP through it. The jacketed rounds completely removed all traces of the lead. I examined the forcing cone very closely and am certain the lead is indeed gone. I'm sure my scrubbing before hand helped loosen it up some.
The other revolver is a Python. It only had a small amount of build up in the barrel. Again I ran a box of FMJ though it and the lead is gone, it was not pressed deeper into the rifling.
I too have to get myself a Lewis Lead Remover.
