All good stuff from Tac there. Just a couple of things to add:
1) I use an ordinary phosphor bronze brush on barrel and chambers. You will note that they have a loop of wire on the end as a product of how they are made. This prevents the brush from reaching the very bottom of the chamber, so try this. Solder a washer on the end as close to the brush itself as possible, then cut the loop off (don't try this the other way round as the wire will spring and let go of all the bristles - don't ask me how I know
).
2) The above helps you to get nearly to the bottom of the chamber. To clean the last bit and the blind end itself take an old electric toothbrush apart and remove the round brush head. Glue it on the end of a stick (I used a suitable size rifle cartridge) so you can twiddle it around at the very end of the chamber. You might need to trim the brush a little to get it to fit the chamber.
