I have. Works great, smells like Windex and does not smell up the house. Not as harsh or chemical like as Shooters Choice.  Powder fouling and copper seem to be removed fairly quickly, however the solvent has no lubricating or protective qualities so something like CLP or LSA needs to be used afterwards.  I found it works especially well cleaning handguns like my Glock and 1911.

Hoppes Elite is Mpro7 under license. Both are made by Pentatholn.

Try Mil-Comm Mc-25. It is just like the above but even better and much cheeper!!!

Good stuff, although I like the shooters choice for the copper removal, but as mentioned above, lube with something else such ast clp or rem oil afterwards.
