I shot some lead bullets through my 358win and I guess they were a little to hot and leaded the barrel.

get some choreboy scrubbers and have at it. and it probably wasn't the speed of your bullets, more than likely they were to small for your bore

A 50/50 mix of hydrogen peroxide and white vinegar is your friend. It will take the lead right out and no, it won't damage your bluing.

I will run a loose, soaking patch with Kroil through the bore a coouple times and let it sit for a half hour or so before taking the brush to a leaded-up bore.
