M-Pro7 has done me proud in all my corrosive ammo shooting.
And I'm hardly anal about it. At the blog shoots I'll run ammo through my guns in the morning and scrub the crap out of them at 10 at night after them sitting in the muggy air all day.
Just don't forget about your gun after shooting corrosive, use a water-based cleaner, and then add some good protective oil and you'll be finest kind!
I too use the Weerd-method of cleaning from corrosive ammo, with one extra step added in. I swab the bore generously with the magical blue elixer known as windex, then use M-Pro 7, then generously oil. My mosin has a brilliant bore.

That looks like the barrel of my Mosin M44. I call it my parts gun.
Still worth a good scrubbing, just to see what happens. I have cleaned up a few sewer pipes and found them to still shoot decently.
Not one of yours, I hope.
Looks like the Spiral Nebulae!
Are you just holding a flash light at the chamber, or do you have a special gizmo? Just curious.
No, not mine. It's a pic that was posted to reddit. Not sure what they used for illumination.
looks sadly familiar, like the bore of my SKS after I cleaned all the cosmoline out.

Ballistol & water: couple of patches through the bore when done shooting, then a dry, then an oily. Normal cleaning after get home.
Brad, I squirted the SKS down with Windex. I like Firehand's idea, too.
Oh, and I'm kind of surprised that nobody posted The Quote: My God, it's full of scars!
