In SASS,I shot a lot of cast bullets out of my 38/357 pistols, a lot and all they ever required was a good cleaning ,the same as you would do with any other loading of jacket bullets. Of course, shooting cast 38 specials out of a 357 mag. cylinder usually causes some leading in that area which by using Chor Boy wrapped around a bore brush will easily remove it. There are a lot of lead removing solutions out on the market, some good, some not so good. We find that in copper removers too. Some good, some not so good. Kroil does work pretty good and I have a mix of that with Hoppe's in a 50/50 solution. Montana Extreme Cowboy Blend does quite well for helping to remove lead. Wipe Out's Lead Out does a very good job. Shooter's Choice lead remover was kind of disappointing. JB bore cleaning compound on a patch and wrapped around a bore brush and with a little Kroil added is a very quick solution to removing lead. Finding a system that works is rewarding and often times not any harder to remove then copper, though with copper fouling's, I have found nothing better then the foam cleaners. Wow, do they work.
