Rifle cleaning rods.

[ReservoirDawg10]

Bore tech has very good rods as well.

Whatever you get, get something carbon fiber or coated.

I have several I use:

Tipton carbon fiber
Dewey
Bore Tech

I like the long rubber handle and rotation mark on the Bore Tech.

Dewey is the standard, although the proprietary male ends on the rods means you need to buy their attachments or use adapters.

Overall, I like the Tipton carbon fiber the best.

Can’t go wrong with any of them.

We trust you used aluminum rod to help protect the barrel and riflings...???

"aluminum rod" ---- Nope, steel drill rod -- grit imbeds in alum and soft coatings -

Always a good idea to shove uncoated steel down your bore

 

[cmshoot]

Carbon fiber ain’t a soft coating, and the coatings on Dewey and Bore Tech rods don’t hold grit.

There are reasons why every Sniper school I’ve attended, every Sniper Instructor I know, and every custom barrel maker I’m familiar with recommend to only use coated or solid carbon fiber cleaning rods.
