Re: What cleaning kit do you use?
- Lucas Bore Guide
- Gunslick cleaning rod
- .30 cal brush and jag
- Sweets 7.62 in the rare occasion that she gets a clean
- Rem Oil
- Sentry Solution Tuff Cloth
- Sentry Solutions Smooth Kote
I rarely clean. Im more concerned with rust forming than cleaning. If accuracy dies i will clean but until then I preserve my barrel by NOT going mental on the cleaning side of things.

If it needs to be cleaned, Boretech.

Re: What cleaning kit do you use?
Bore snake, Dewey cleaning rod and jags, and IOSSO Bore Cleaner. That's about it. Oh and a bore guide.

Re: What cleaning kit do you use?
Carbon rod, bore guide, cotton patches with Hoppes #9. Sweets for copper with bronze brush, only after accuracy degrades. Hoppes oil for wiping down steel afterward. Pretty simple.

Re: What cleaning kit do you use?
Segmented steel M16 cleaning rod and a stainless steel brush.
If I want to get it extra clean I wrap some steel wool around the brush and use a drill to spin it while moving it forward and back.
Is this the twentieth cleaning gear thread this month yet?
Seriously, a Dewey rod, lucas guide and parker hale jag will get it done. A Otis kit is good for the field and a bore snake is all she gets after a range day.

Re: What cleaning kit do you use?
-Lucas Bore Guide
-KG-1, KG-12, KG-3, KG-4
-Dewey Nylon Coated Rods
-Bore Tech Proof positive jags and brushes
-Cleaning patches
I really recommend KG-1 and KG-12 I found them to be the most effective for carbon and copper respectively.

Re: What cleaning kit do you use?
+1 on OTIS kits and Mike Lucas's bore guides.
All you need in addition are good rods/jags, some patches, Wipe Out, <span style="text-decoration: underline">nylon</span> brushes and some CLP.

Re: What cleaning kit do you use?
Otis, cotton patches, Butch's bore shine, Wipe-out foam bore cleaner, Sweet's 7.62, kroil oil, tetra oil or grease.
Some combination of the above with only cotton patches and cleaning cables. I don't use brushes, jags or cleaning rods.
