What all of you have not mentioned is that with Hoppes #9 is that you get two unique fragerances to choose from. Regular #9 for lead and powder fouling removal and Hoppes Benchrest #9 for copper fouling removal. It has a pretty good amonia smell. Hint: to really get that pesky copper streak out of your barrel, add a cap full of ammonia to your Benchrest #9. Shake bottle vigorously and apply with a patch till barrel is coated thoroughly. Reduce interval time that you patch through and reapply. Repeat until dry patch stays white, no blue or gray. That stuff is potent, don't leave it overnight.
At least I didn't see it in any responses mentioning the two.
Usually most folks that don't like it's performance used the wrong one for a intended purpose. And/or they were in too big a hurry. After all, quality time with your firearms includes cleaning. Kinda like having to change dirty diapers on your kids it's part of the experience. Lol!
Love that smell......uhmmmm.....the Hoppes #9 that is.
Happy shooting !
