Being primarily plant-based oil, be aware that the bore may get sticky between shots, unless you remove all of it prior to your first shot.

My buddy left traces of Frog Lube in the bore and struggled mightily trying to load sabot/bullets at the range.

When ever I used to use dawn and water to clean my barrel. Seemed like I could run patches till the cows come home and never get a completely clean one.
Not so with Hydrogen Peroxide, Alcohol, and Murphy's soap mix.

Use 91% isopropyl for that mix. It works better because it's cleaner (less impurities).

Also, if you get a really crudded up bore from a trade or something, try PB Blaster. Just blast it down the bore and let it sit a while. Hit it with a brush and you will be amazed at all the crap that comes out. Regular Butch's Bore Shine does pretty good for that as well, but the PB Blaster stuff is incredible.

That said, if y'all can get a bore down to bare metal, use Dyna-Bore Coat on it once it is to bare metal. After that, cleaning is so easy it will astonish you. Nothing sticks; everything pushes right out.
