Above all don't use anything abrasive in the bores, or anywhere else on your gun.
My personal choice, though others may offer different products, is Big 45 Frontier Pads on a ramrod with a solvent like Hoppe's, chucked up in a cordless drill to clean up the bores. The Frontier Pads can also be used on external metal parts and will NOT damage blueing, case colors, or Damascus finishes.
