Shooter's Choice is the amswer to mall your bore cleaning needs. Their lead remover is just fantasic. It literally breaks down lead to nothing and it comes out of the barrel with little work. Click on the link below. I have used SC products since 1991 and have only good things to say about them. They put Hoppe's to shame.

I shot a lot of my own cast bullets and found 2 good solvents. Either Hoppes #9 or Birchwood Casey's Gun Scrubber. Use this with the bore brush and about 15-30 minutes of good cleaning and scrubbing (depending upon how bad the fouling is) and you will have a nice clean barrel.

If it is a handgun, I would consider using a Lewis Lead Remover. Basically wire patches pulled through the barrel of handguns. I have a Single Action .45 Colt that almost requires this due to the softer lead bullet I use.
They have an electronic chemical bath available but off hand I can't recall the name.

Sweets 7.62 is better then the others mentioned here. I would only recommend it for a really fouled up barrel and not every clean. It smells terrible but it cuts through copper and lead like you wouldn't believe.

I prefer Hoppe's Benchrest myself. It'll clean everything out of the barrel leaving the bore nice and clean with no fouling. Of course, use of a bronze brush is required as always.
