    To be fair I have a shelf load of cleaners but the most effective is wipe out used with accelerator.
    I shoot my rifles till accuracy bleeds of then deep clean with above.
    In between is bore snake with rem oil sprayed on the first bit.
    The purpose of that is to take out powder residue which attracts moisture and leaves a very slight protective layer in the bore.
    I have used wipe out on rifles with bad carbon rings showing pressure and I accuracy with previous good ammo.
    It does work!
