I used to shoot a lot of short range benchrest & was pretty picky about how I cleaned my good ppc tubes & no need to go through all the details from the past, but when I saw the winning guys were moving to the foam cleaner & getting away from rods i gave it shot and haven't gone back.
The stuff works & is so painless...I take a piece of weed whacker string about 1 foot longer than the bbl & burn one end with a lighter till it starts to melt & then tap in down on a wet flat surface. This side grabs the patch. Cut the other end to a sharp point to help pierce the patch. I'll pull a couple of wet patches soaked in the wipe Out Accelerator through & then shoot the foam Wipe Out from the muzzle end. Do short bursts as it doesn't take much & can go everywhere. Let is sit for a while & then pull dry patches through & finish up with damp kroil patch or whatever you like.
I also keep these strings & a few patches in my hunting bags...great insurance case bbl gets some crude on the muzzle / wet. Pick it out & pull a patch. Anyway, FWIW...works for me.
