The cylinder chambers can be especially laborious if you’ve been shooting a short cartridge in a long chamber, like a .38 Special in a .357 Magnum chamber, or .44 Special in a .44 Magnum chamber, you get the idea. The carbon fouling builds up ahead of the case mouth and won’t come out no matter how hard you scrub—or so it seems.
Use the power of electricity! In this case, I mean a power drill or power screwdriver.
You'll need to cut off the “handle” end of a cleaning rod, so you can stick it in the chuck. Just make sure the rod is long enough that you can get the brush all the way in the cylinder without the drill hitting the cylinder.
Use a brass or aluminum rod. No steel rods allowed. You don’t want to risk damaging your gun.
Power cleaning is only for revolver cylinder chambers. Do not use this in the barrel.
