Dean, thanks for the tip about using a solvent. To clean, it used to be just use Hoppe’s 9. Now I see a number of bore cleaners from Hoppe’s Foaming Bore Cleaner, Hoppe’s Black, Hoppe’s Elite, Thompson’s T17 Foaming Bore Cleaner, and many others. Then there is stalwart WD40 and CLP as lube. Any suggestion for what is best for old black powder deposits to use with the Big 45? Are there any caveats for using some of them in Damascus?
