I use a brass round brush attached to a rod and then using my drill on SLOW speed, scour the inside of the choke tube. Solvent during this process helps. Really helps to remove the buildup which if not removed will obviously change the choke characteristics.
I have to clean my choke tubes about every 200 rounds to prevent excessive plastic buildup. Often the I have to put a bronze or copper cleaning brush in a cleaning rod, and insert it into a drill driver to get the plastic crud out. I sure wish the was a solvent to do this.

I think I have a little carbon buildup at the at the back of the choke before the threads? Do you still suggest toothbrush or should I use a smaller gauge bronze brush to remove carbon.?
Look up Ed's red on the internet- Used this solvent for all of my firearms and will never have to buy another solvent again.. Perfect for the barrels, plastic wadding will never be a problem again.. 1qt. automatic transmission (non detergent) fluid, 1qt. kerosene, 1qt mineral spirits, 1qt acetone - makes a gallon and will clean any bore without damage.. keep it away from any finished wood,, barrel only... Enjoy
Btw, can't clean tubes like he cleans the barrels if you have custom tubes for skeet. Don't need that much grease either. Little dab'l do ya. Like Brill Cream!
That looked to be a beautiful game scene on that shotgun! 👍🏼

Those spirals are the best ever for fouling

He missed the fact to store your gun barrels down so the oils don't stain the wood
