Another vote for bronze.
To remove carbon from the bore, you need something more aggressive than nylon. |

Bronze for normal cleaning. Nylon if I'm using copper solvent.

bronze on a bore snake for quick cleaning and bronze on a one piece rod for deep cleaning.

Nylon, or bristle. Not just in the AR, in ALL my rifles.

Phospher Coated Bronze- IMHO Nylon is waaaay to abrasive, even for chrome lined.

Quoted: just my bore snake and some clp,havent had any trouble in 11 years and ive never had to take a brush to the bore. Have you ever used any copper solvent ? After 11 years of just CLP, are you worried about copper build-up ? |

If nylon or bronze is way too abrasive, I think I'd throw that barrel away. There is no bronze or nylon made that will harm chrome let alone any kind of steel. They're both relatively soft.

I dont have any copper build up and I had a barrel change 6 years ago to a 14.5 with phantom from a 16",I always clean after I shoot,ive got around 10,000 rounds through the new barrel and no accuracy problems or copper build up I use a .45 cal bore brush on the chamber,it works perfect and the bore snake with no problems,also use the same .45 brush for the bolt carrier,I supose if the rifle sat uncleaned I would have to take a bore brush to it but I dont,the chrome is real slippery and easy to clean.I use clp to clean and lube and the rifle is as smooth as glass.
