    It would be nice to find a product that works well, along with a nylon brush for scrubbing the bottom of the cylinder to get it spotless.

    The nylon brush I have only really scrubs the sides.

    For my .44 BP guns I use a tool I made from an old electric toothbrush. Some have a round brush which can be easily removed. Trim it down to fit the cylinder with a Stanley knife, and glue it on to a bit of dowel (I used a 5.56mm case) and you can reach the bottom of the cylinder and give it a twirl to clean. Also works well on nipple recesses.
    True freedom includes the freedom to make mistakes or do foolish things and bear the consequences.

    That sounds spot on

    Great idea, will give it a go!

    Thanks
