great product

my standard cleaning brushes

Best deal for your money

Love the 3 pack deal especially when breaking in new barrels. Quality product and tailored for your specific caliber rifle.

Scrubbing little buggers..

I used one of these to scrub a long neglected .22 revolver. It took the lead out in long thin slivers, left the bore as clean as it was on the day it was made. Could not have asked for more.

Great Bore Brush

These bore brushes hold up to repeated use and maintain their stiffness in tight bores. I will purchase these again. Great Bore brush for .22 cal.

Reasonable Price and Works

Scrubs the bore without damage. Have been using Brownell's brushes for several years.

Excellent Brushes

Normal, run of the mill cleaning brushes that work well and last for numerous cleaning cycles. Definitely get the dozen instead of the 3-pack. I do have two easy suggestions for best use: One is to rinse the solvent off them with water and dry them after you're finished cleaning. This helps slow bristle degradation. Two is to be sure to tighten them hard onto the cleaning rod base, as they do have a tendency to work loose.

Not the same size

Only 2 brushes were 30 ca!, the other one was much larger.
