Right! Use a good quality brass cored brass bore brush. Wet the brush with any quality bore cleaning solvent... I like Shooters Choice. Chuck the brush in a electric drill and run it at low speed pushing the brush in and out of the charge holes. It makes short work of cleaning the crud out of a .357 cylinder when I've been firing .38 Specials that might be a little sooty, etc. I wipe the cylinder face clean, but I don't try to scrub it down to the bare metal whether it is blued or stainless steel. I clean it and that's enough. I clean the ratchet and under the extractor star, etc.
