Hot soapy water is the best for cleaning them. This sounds off base to anyone that shots regular smokless powder but that works the best for us. Black powder is very corrosive and if you miss any it will cause rust. If you get it clean any gun oil will keep it in good shape. Depending on what model you have we take the stock off and the primer nipple. Then have a coffee can full of very hot water and put the bottom end of the barrel in the water. Then using a cleaning rod with a wet cloth on the end of it push it down the barrel and pull back up a few times. This will draw hot soapy water into the barrel from the nipple and clean it from the bottom of the barrel to the top. Do this several times then dump the water and use fresh, clean, hot water. When you can't see any dirty water then rinse using hot clean water. The hot water will evaporate - after the barrel is dry I spray it with any antirust and wipe it down with gun oil reassemble and you should be good. Oh clean the nipple using hot soapy water while you are doing the barrel After the nipple is dry oil it and the threads before putting it together.
