Anybody tried the wipe out bore cleaner? It looks like pretty good stuff just curious if anyone has personal experience with it.

Some swear by it. I have not used it but I have used the Gunslick Foaming Bore Cleaner. Seems to work pretty good. I'll run a wet patch of solvent first and then run two dry patches. I'll then use the Gunslick foam and let it sit for 30 minutes. Patch usually will come out black and blue. I dont stop there though... I'll then go to work on the bore with more solvent and brushes.

I'm one of those bore cleaning perfectionist types.

Here's some info about wipeout.

I use shooters choice for routine cleaning and sweets for the tougher fouling when needed. Here's my tip, always use nylon brushes no matter what solvent you decide to use and never use an un-coated rod. Happy cleaning!!!! Sucks, but necessary.-----shooter

Shooter I am like you but I use Hoppes for regular cleaning then use the Sweets for bad fouling. Maybe I will get some of the wipe-out stuff and test it and let everyone know what I think. Thanks for the replies fellas.

Rifle looney Jim Carmichael once wrote that he "used Hoppes #9 for cologne and if the smell of it turned the girl off he wouldn't ask her out for a date." I subscribe to that theory. lol

Wipe out works great. I have tried about everything and there are a lot of good products out there. I shoot high power cross course and was looking for something that didn't require as much elbow grease. Not from the standpoint of the work but from the evasive nature of constantly running brushes and patches down your bore.

It works well and I have been very happy with it and am getting better barrel life because of it. I would tell you that after use you need to run a light patch of clp or similar to coat your bore.
