Norm is a very wise man, because he agrees with me! heh....Butch's is my favorite solvent too....you may also have some good luck with JB Bore Paste...it's a very, very mild abrasive and will clean and polish the bore better than anything....don't be alarmed by the "abrasive" label...it's used by competition shooters every few hundred rounds in their high-dollar match grade barrels.

Thank all for your ideas on brand name cleaners,etc. I know 2 long term pistol smiths and I will have them look at the bore to see if my assessment of "slightly pitted" is correct and go from there.
