I used the Gunslick Foaming bore cleaner on three of my rifles. The first two were my 25-06 and 300 Ultra-Mag. On these it did not seem to do much. The bores got clean, but no faster, or better than Butch's Bore Shine does (and Butch's smells better).
The last rifle, an SKS I just bought, the results were different. My father also got one and I cleaned his bore with Butch's. Patch after patch I sent through and they came out black. Nasty deep, lots o' gunk black. There was blue mixed in at first, but by and large they stayed black. It took one two hour session, and a second session of an hour and a half before you could call it clean(ish). For mine I tried the Gunslick Foaming Bore Cleaner. Three bores full of foam and it was clean. The first batch of foam to come out looked like something that comes out of a backed up septic tank. The second looked bad, the third was pretty good. It was a lot quicker and easier.
I think the foaming cleaner will be my choice on a heavily (hasn't been cleaned in years) fouled bore. Other than that I will stick with Butch's.
