The forcing cone into the rifling seems to have a copper color in the groves once you get it cleaned. "copper"?
Any thoughts?

Use some foam bore cleaner, it will remove the copper without any scrubbing.
Below foam bore cleaner in a 1943 No.4 Enfield rifle with a frosted and slightly pitted bore. One shot of foam bore cleaner removed all the carbon and copper in the bore.
More firearms are damaged by improper cleaning than any other reason. And foam bore cleaner greatly reduces the amount of cleaning rod time in the bore.
Spare the rod and spoil the bore.
