    Looking to order some boretech brushes but just under $12 shipping is insane for 3 brushes. I Who do y'all order from?

    There's nothing else I need to offset the cost. Just got 2 new bottles of bore cleaner.
     
    Maybe a local gun show if its less than $12 of gas away. Sorry I can’t be much help. Have you checked all the usual places?
    Everywhere I normally use. A couple shops near me sell boretech stuff but everyone around here no matter the brand only sells brass brushes and you get berated for wanting nylon.
    Don't have to know your product to sell it I suppose...

    I don't need anything to spend 50-100 for free shipping anywhere.

    Evil Amazon is OOS, my fiancé had prime.
     
    Brownells with Edge shipping is my place for these things... The 2-Day shipping got slow there for awhile (all the shipping carriers seemed to screwed up), but I've always found that Brownells ships it quickly.

    I just try not to run out... and order at least 12 brushes at a time when I "re-stock" a caliber
     
    Honestly I'm not sure I ever wear them out. I'm not very aggressive with barrel brushing, usually just a few strokes before running patches... if I use them at all.

    I just replace them every 4-5 cleaning if I don't lose it them first. (Edit: I don't clean my barrels every time I shoot either... just after I shoot a lot or if I'm going to be putting the rifle away and not using it for a while)

    I'm only cleaning my .22 because the groups are getting trash.

    My .308 I plan to clean every 200-300rd or so.

    I'm not a huge cleaning guy. I wipe them down and lube, but some people clean too much. My stuff doesn't look crazy dirty either
