Just realized my approach to cleaning bores was backwards
I always scrubbed rifle barrels hard with a brass brush first. On a precision rimfire, this just pushed fouling down the tube. I tried a solvent soak followed by light patches, and the carbon came right out. Now I start soft and only brush if needed.

Why soak first if scrubbing hard gets the bore clean faster?

Soaking BREAKS down the grime so scrubbing is EASIER.
