Kroil for carbon, WO or Bore Tech Eliminator for copper.  If I have lots of time it's WO as I just leave it in there for a day or so.

Mike McDonald always said the subject of barrel cleaner always brought out "the witches and the warlocks". Wink  

I like JG, love Kroil. That smell.....It just smells....right.Love 
If at first you don't secede...try..try again.

Me too! Kroil has a mystifying smell...that "I'm here to kick a$$," serious bidness kinda smell. I mix it half and half with Shooters Choice, and the resulting blend is my default bore cleaner, supplemented by the occasional Wipe Out treatment.

When I first tried KG12 copper fouling cleaner, I was amazed and even almost embarrassed by the amount of embedded carbon which it removed from my "clean" barrel(s). I gave a bottle to a friend and his results were the same as mine. KG12 is no slouch in the copper removal department, either.

2 cents /out

Ps  Yeah, Kroil has it's smell, but got nuttin' on Hoppe's #9.
