Looks like a good start. You might want to get a BIG bag of patches, a BIG can of CLP and a jar of Hoppes #9 or the bore solvent of your choice. Also a black t-shirt helps in wiping down the rifle. A cheap paint brush helps in getting the exterior clean too.

I have a jar of Hoppes #9 solvent that I use on my 10/22, and a decent size bag of patches for .22.

Do I need Hoppes Copper Solvent?

What's the preferred CLP on here?

Break Free CLP will work as an oil (CLP). It is the one that just about every other oil manuf compares there oil to.  Has to say somthing about breakfree.

That is break free CLP.  I just dont get it a walmart.  Usally I'll pick a 4oz bottle at my local gunstore when I am goeeting some other supplies. He  is a Miltec and G96 pusher, so I like to have him order me some fp-10 when I am there as well.

outers and rem oil I personally would leave on the shelf.

If those are your only options, go for the BreakFree.  I have also used the Foaming Bore Cleaner (far left) and it does a pretty good job at getting out copper.  

If you can find it (at a gun store), I would recommend the FP-10 that Gregory K mentioned earlier.  Better than any of the Walmart options.
