Many passes with patches and a bronze brush. I use mostly Ballistol as my cleaner. Used to use Hoppes #9, but I think Ballistol does a better job honestly. I still use Hoppes in a pinch, as Ballistol is impossible to find locally and if I run out, Hoppes works until I can get in some more Ballistol off the internets.

I'm not a fan of bore snakes on pistols, especially on the cylinders. They are great on rifles.

I would never think of using any sort of power tool on it, that has disaster written all over it.

Edit: I also use only 100% cotton patches, not the synthetic kind.
