This has been gone over numerous times, but in the spirit of repetition, here's another vote for outers (or an equivalent) foul out electronic bore
For those of you that are industrious and don't want to pay $109 or so, here's what seem to be a reasonable set of instructions for how to make your own (flashlight not included):

I started w/ two colts that I cleaned completely. I used a brass brush with lead out and hoppes, then patches, etc. I then degreased them and ran them through Foul Out. Out came a bunch of black gunk, despite the many passes w/ the brass brush. This has happened pretty much each time I've used it. Seems worth doing, sometimes. It's kind of a hassle, but life is tough.
Here's a 2.5 python strapped in with outer's rod inserted + solution:
Pulling the rod, alot of gunk for such a short barrel:
And, even in cases where the rod is clean, when you run a patch through there's always more:
We do the same w/ a 41mag python --- it seemed that the 41 mag loads left more leading in the barrel, which was what motivated me to get all this stuff out and use it again:
As before, dirty rod:
And running a dry patch through gets a bunch of stuff:
