It gets the lead and powder fouling out of 22 RF bores?

Wipe out and Butches Bore Shine. I used to like Barnes CR-10 but it chewed up the barrels almost as fast as it got the copper fouling out. laugh

I've switched from time to time but now days I scrub the bore with a brush and Kroil and let it sit muzzle down for a little bit. Then I patch it out with lacquer thinner followed up by whatever foam bore cleaner I have at the time. Muzzle down....overnight

Patch it out and I'm done

I like Wipe Out and Patch Out more than the others and I've used just about every one mentioned.

I'll pimp for Dyna Bore Coat, again.

Use it and cleaning won't be such a big discussion or big deal.

It's not.


WipeOut if used with the accelerant can pit stainless steel if left over an extended time (overnite). Just WipeOut will not.

If I have time on my hands I use WipeOut or PatchOut +/- accelerant) and leave over night. If in a hurry use Montana Extreme Bore Cleaner and/or ME Copper Killer (formerly 50BMG). Love the smell of Hoppe's #9 but seldom use it much anymore except in my 22 RFs.

I'm trying this fellows method which means MINIMUM cleaning , just get the carbon out .Working good so far .

I shot my 25-06 from 1979 until about 1990ish never doing more than running an oily patch down the barrel . I figured I kept the whole gun clean - never got the barrel dirty - just didn't know about copper fouling etc . .
Give this a look if you want , he's a sharp cookie on guns and stuff .

Prowler, Has there been any data or research to prove that this occurs ? And what substance or chemical are you calling an accelerant???

I'm not disputing your claim. It's just the first time I've seen any one mention pitting caused by the use of Wipeout. I've been using it for a little over a year now & leaving it in the bore of my rifles over night and have yet to see any damage caused by its use.

Wipe out has a product you can use before putting the foam cleaner in , I think that's what he' talking about .

That is my understanding as well. I've never used the Accelerant but had good results nonetheless.

Thanks. I'd never heard of or seen the Accelerant product.

The internet rumor is the accelerant can etch the bore if you let it soak. I've stopped using it a long time with my Patch Out (liquid version of Wipe Out foam).

I also use Montana Extreme. Sometimes I think Montana Extreme works better, other times it seems like Patch Out does better. If it's winter and the windows are closed I use Patch Out.

I'm used to chemical odors but don't sniff the bottle of Montana Extreme........I know this.....

I also use Patch Out w/o accelerator. I've often applied it at the range after shooting, while the barrel is still warm.

The best cleaner is the one that reduces the need to clean. I'll second the DBC suggestion.

I like Boretech Eliminator, but can never find it locally and sometimes have a hard time finding it online. I've moved on to Wipe out Patch Out, it is available locally for a reasonable price and works very well with minimal scent. I often use two patches of Wipeout Accelerator (which does have a fairly strong ammonia smell) before starting with Patch Out. Accelerator definitely speeds things up, but Patch Out is pretty quick by itself.

What does Hoppes do that Wipe-Out can't do by itself?
