Default Clean bores?

My son and I shot a sporting clays course yesterday and we put 300 rounds thru my 2 Parkers. I use RSTs exclusively and the bores were filthy. I laid out the barrels last night for a good cleaning using my typical combination of bristle brush, patches, Hopppes #9 and gun oil and I sat down to spend some quality time with the old girls.

I must be an idiot because I ended up with a pile of 50 lead streaked Hoppes soaked patches and although the bores looked ok, after all that effort the patches still weren’t coming out clean. I probably could have continued running patches thru the bores all night but I finally ran out of patience.

What am I doing wrong?
