    So na just a lazy bugger that happens to prefer shooting to cleaning.
    I have fucked around with many cleaning variants and know whats clean and whats not.
    I have seen that gunslick perform miracles on a thrashed 50 cal and couldnt believe my eyes what came out with the first clean.
    We put another load of foam in and the jag came out clean.
    It was night and day.
    I have done the same experiment on my own and other mates rigs to make the call its working as i say.
    Im prepared to try new ideas and technology with all things in my life that make it easier and faster.
    All im trying to do is share the love!

    Hi, I have been using that stuff for the last 15 years.
    So easy and so clean to use.
    How ever on very dirty barrels I use bore tech c4 first to get rid off most of the carbon and then used gunslick. I often leave it overnight in the barrel, put a couple of clean patches through the following morning followed by a patch saturated with crc long life to neutralise everything.

    There is an amazing compound which forms the basis of a good many cleaning products it is called kerosine.LOL.

    I'm with Andy, pretty much used everything on the market and this is now my go to for all my guns. Really simple to use. You can actually see the white foam turn blue around the muzzle as it pulls the copper off the bore +1

    No brushes needed which can contaminate the cleaning process and give a false positive.

    So with this stuff you just spray it in and can leave it for hours? Or do you still put it through with patches?

    It has a tube that ya stick down the breech and then give it a sqirt till foam comes out the end of the barrel.
    Instructions state to leave it 15 to 30 mins i think and then patch out like normal.

    Get your gun dealer go get it from sport ways for you, the savage importers in Auckland.
    It is cheap like 15$ or so.

    Just seen this thread.
    Interesting I've always used sweets. Learnt not to put your nose anywhere near it, unless you have blocked sinus issues.
    But since I ran out of it last month have been looking for so thin that will do the job.
    Cheers this looks like it has the ducks nuts written on it.
