How do you guys clean the barrel chamber when using a bore guide?

unless you are a ham-fisted gorilla.....you dont need a bore guide.

frankly you dont need to be cleaning all that often to begin with

I clean the barrel with the bore guide in, during which some solvent leaks into the chamber. I clean the chamber second by pulling the bore guide, doubling up a large square patch (2 1/2 or 3" square) around the jag (Parker Hale style) and spinning that in the chamber to clean up the gunk and solvent.
 
I spray Brake Kleen on this and give it a few twists.

I clean the brush with Brake Kleen also.
 
I use turkey basters at work for sucking up fluids. The ones at HEB come with a brush inside, they work pretty good. Also the nylon brushes that come with pistols work good too.
