It's a foam. Squirt it in to fill the barrel, let it sit, overnight if you want to. Then, push out gunk with a patch covered old bore brush. Great.

Dittos on that!
I've had similiar experiences till I found Wipe-out.
CR-10 was the best until I put straight Wipe-out in my CR-10 cleaned guns. The patches came out blue.
Get their Accelerator also. You swab the barrel with it before applying the foam.
I also use a nylon brush to scrub the bore on persistent fouling first, then a patch with jag combo. No more metal brushes.
Make sure to use a good cleaning rod like a Dewey and clean from the chamber end.
When you clean the Savage with foam, keep the barrel horizontal and squirt from the muzzle end. Put paper towels in the magazine area to keep the foam from running into the internal mag well.
I'll stick my pinky (no Treedoc, that is not Mr Pinky) into the chamber while squirting a small amount at a time. Once the foam is felt, I stop the application. Saves on foam that way.
