I like the Otis pullthroughs myself.

The link you provided had a few reviews that said those patches were good but tight on the first pass(es). Are you sure your jag is correct and in spec? You do want a tight patch in the barrel as this will clear all the crap when you have the maximum surface contact you can.
I use Otis patches, but that is just out of convenience since I can get them easily. I don't think they are any better than what you can get at Walmart or what you have at hand. Littlelebowski's recommendation is a pretty good one. At least the foamy stuff will probably let you get your patch through the barrel and if it is water based, won't be a problem with FrogLube.
I find it hard to believe we have a 2 page thread about cleaning patches when we have numerous numerous stickies about cleaning.
OP- You are overthinking this go to Brownells get some regular GI 5.56/ 223 patches and be done with it.

I'm sure you probably have figured out by now that 99% of us here don't even use a jag to clean with.
