If you look into it I believe that the abrasive that it contains is harder than some of the others. Many years back I toured a barrel maker's shop, and as I was walking out I looked over at the finish lapping area and saw several bottles of Witch's Brew, that seemed to be part of their finish lapping process.....any comments on Witches Brew sold by Holland's Shooters Supply ?

This^^^^^^I use ISSO and JB a lot. You’re not going to hurt your cleaning with it. The trick is to make sure you get it out, before you shoot again.

Barrel cleaning is a function of risk management. It would be easier to choose the least amount necessary if there was a ranking of abrasives backed by actual facts.

I bought some Witches Brew about four years ago. It isn't something I use often (bottle still 3/4 full) but if a barrel gets extremely coppered or heavy carbon build up it works. I scrubbed a well worn Bartlien 6MM barrel chamber red in 6 Creedmoor with it when accuracy started to sour. My thought was that I couldn't hurt it but a chance to experiment. There was a lot of fire cracking and heavy build up that regular cleaning just wouldn't take out. First trip out after was rewarded with the highest score the rifle ever gave.....any comments on Witches Brew sold by Holland's Shooters Supply ?
Yea, I use lighter fluid {naptha} to clear.This after you have applied/cleaned the barrel with JB or ISSO.
Use a clean brush, squirt C4 or Seafoam on the brush. Brush the barrel say 5 times (all the way through and back counts as 1 stroke)! Then run clean dry patches through, If you continue after 4 to 5 patches to get black streaks. Repeat the above.
