 Boy there is a passel of you guys that literally can't do things the cheapest,fastest, easiest, way. And, I'm not saying that in my almost half century of fooling around with muzzleloaders, I haven't tried a lot of cleaning brews myself, but really, starting fluid, and carberator cleaner. I expect the new guy up will be cleaning with Tidy Bowl, and Kotex. Oh, and putting peroxide in a finely made rifle barrel should be classified as a criminal act in my book. JMO.

There are sure a lot of ways to take a simple operation and make it complex!

Water, tore up old tee shirts, lube when done. Shoot some more- repeat!

Our ancestors cleaned the simple, easy way; why can't we?  I can just picture Washington's troops passing around a bottle of "carb cleaner".   ::)
