Quoted: Even better than Sweet's (just as effective, faster, and not harmful to you or the barrel) is this:Iosso bore cleaner

This is looking real good. Have you tried any of their other products?

No, but after three years of trying all kinds of stuff (Hoppes, Butch Bore Shine, Shooters Choice, Pro Shot, CLP, and Kroil) I have come up with what works for me.
I now use Break Free Carbon Cutter for all fouling except heavy copper, Iosso for tough copper fouling and for keeping the carbon buildup off the throat, and Break Free CLP for lubing and light cleaning.
Break Free Carbon Cutter is almost a miracle. It outperforms Kroil in removing carbon fouling, and it attacks light copper fouling very well. To knock off heavy copper, I use Iosso in patches on a wraparound jag and run it up and down the bore already soaked in Carbon Cutter. Even rough hunting rifle barrels clean up in 30 minutes or less. Match grade barrels need only one or two passes to clean up nicely. Flush everything out with patches soaked in Carbon Cutter, patch dry, then apply a light coat of CLP and patch dry one more time for storage.
