Use'em...
Lotsa folks try different materials, thicknesses & lubes looking for the best combo for their gun.
Give 'em a try.

lube 'em up and try 'em! After you shoot a few rounds, go downrange and collect a few and check for cuts and burn through...if they're burnt, they're too thin, cuts...well just might be some rough tooling in the barrel some more shooting will probably polish it down a bit

You can try them and see how they work.  Usually though, cleaning patches don't have a dense enough weave to make good shooting patches.

looking forward to trying the .43 and the .54
