I’m sure they’re a thread or two out there on this already. I’m wondering what size jag and what type of patches do people use for precision bolt action rifle. I bought a 6mm specific jag and tried to run a single cotton (the good) patches and it want fit. Also what is everyone running as far as cleaners go I’m open to all ideas and suggestions.
 
There will be a wide range of opinions on this topic. I'm using ProShot 1 3/8" square patches with a 6mm jag. I'm currently using Butch's Bore Shine to get the powder fouling out. Followed by Bore Tech Eliminator to address copper fouling and/or Bore Tech C4 Carbon Remover to stay on top of carbon build up.

Boretech proof positive jags and rods with thier patches for center fire with C4 and Cu2 for center fire. For the .22s I stick with the Boretech rod and C4 but use VFG rifle felts and the necessary adapters.
