I use them for my 223 and 6.5 CM. I use the holder that allows me to use 3 pellets.

I use them on my 6.5 x47 and 7LRM. They work very well.

Do you need the VFG pellet tip to use the felt pellets or can I just use the thread tip on my Dewey carbon rod?

I use the vfg pellets in my 6mm and 6.5 caliber rifles. They work great. The aggressive pellets are great for carbon fouling with a little CLR. Then a swab of solvent to neutralize any trace left behind

I use them on my Grendels and PRC. Work as advertised. I keep a small jar of them soaked in solvent
