You can watch the video if you want. It's a long one. In short, the best 2 products in this test was actually the cheaper products. Hoppes #9 Solvent, and Outers Foaming Bore Cleaner.
Ballistol actually did fairly well being it's not a cleaner but a lubricant.
Another thing to learn from this test, DO NOT, repeat, DO NOT leave Birchwood Casey Blue & Rust Removal on your gun for any longer than specified by the instructions. DO NOT think by leaving it on longer will do a better job. It will actually tear up your guns finish and your bore. If this test is any kind of real, I'd hate to imagine what a gun would look like if directions are not followed. The test doesn't claim it's a bad product. Just be sure to follow the instructions or damage WILL result.
Again, the big winners in this test for removing lead are, Hoppes #9 Solvent, and Outers Foaming Bore Cleaner.
