"jacketed ammo thru it to polish the bore" well that's an old saying, but is completely false. Jacketed ammo does not clean the bore at all it helps led and copper to stick better to the bore.
The best advice would be to brush the barrel thoroughly, this will loose all of the carbon build up from unburned powder and the build up from the copper jackets of the bullets, then get a good solvernt, wet a patch, and put it at the breach of the barrel and with a push rod force it through the barrel until it comes out through the muzzle. Then use dry patches until they come out reasonably clean. Lube a bit the barrel before storing the gun.
IMHO
