A friend gave me a Savage 223 bolt action rifle that has chatter marks in the rifling grooves and it really collects carbon and copper. The C4 and the copper remover work great. With a bronze or nylon brush. The Montana Extreme nylon brushes are a very tight fit so I have to use a Bore Tech with a coated steel cleaning rod because a Tipton rod will just bend. With a tight fitting bronze brush the carbon comes out with a little effort. Same with the copper remover. I use a 243 /6mm Bore Tech nylon brush for the 223 bore. A 223 brush is way to loose. Just use the Tipton rods for patches.
