Has anyone used this brand of Copper remover?

I'm trying to find a good brand of copper remover, and I normally purchase all my cleaning supplies from Brownells.

The brand in question is CU+2 Copper Remover

Truth be told, I was being a noob and didn't think about picking up cleaning supplies to deal with copper fouling, so I have the feeling that my poor rifles are going to need something strong (An AR15 and a Mosin 91/30), considering both have gone around 400-500 rounds plus without me doing anything about the copper residues.
 
While I haven't tried that cleaner, I order Wipe-Out and Patch-Out from Brownells and they are excellent copper cleaners. Just put it in the barrel, let it work overnight and patch it out the next day. I no longer use brushes, there's no odor as it doesn't contain ammonia - that's why you can leave it in the barrel overnight - and it works very well.
 
Standard procedure in the past was to disassemble the rifle, cork the chamber, fill the barrel with household ammomia, and drain off the blue fluid in a couple hours. Then wash with water, clean and oil.

Progress is good.
