I think most folks post this sort of thing under gunsmithing, however you are welcome to post it here 270.
I use 3-in-1 household oil..... that's it. If I am at the range and I need a quick squirt I may toss some rem oil on it, but I have used 3-in-1 on all my firearms and have never had a problem. The ONLY time I use solvents on a barrel is if there is an actual problem... IE it has happened twice in all my years. Once on a blackhawk that was completely leaded over, and once on a 22 that had the same issue. Both have been repeatedly and often used since with never an issue. If I am cleaning a barrel then I use a cotton cloth patch, and 3-in-1 household oil. Not saying anybody else's methods are wrong. Use what works for you. GoodOlBoy

I use various solvents (mostly Hoppes & Shooters choice) to remove copper, lead, and powder fouling.....once the fouling is gone, I LIGHTLY coat the inside of the barrel with WD-40, and lightly wipe down all external metal surfaces as well....for lubrication, I use either graphite or one of the newer silicon sprays....it's less messy, doesn't collect dust & dirt while hunting, and won't gum up in extremely cold temperatures.
CLP is good, and I used to use it, but I think there are other products out there now that are better...
