    Put a soft bronze brush on a push rod . Then attach it to a cordless drill.lubricate well and work up and down .I've cleaned many barrels this way .no need to over work ot let the brush do the work.then use same principle amd polish it up with a mop end .

    Don't use an abrasive like autosol or JB paste.
    You will end up with visible rings. Had a gunsmith do that to one of my guns.
    Overkill is still dead.
