Wrap some fine steel wool around a jag or make it fit tight on a brush.   Work it hard and then inspect for lead in the wool.  If you don't see lead, your patches may be showing actual barrel steel.


Example;  JB bore paste will turn dark gray to black when worked in a perfectly clean bore .  It's barrel steel.


Another option is an electronic bore cleaner.
