STANDARD LINE STAINLESS STEEL CENTER FIRE RIFLE BORE BRUSHES

STANDARD LINE STAINLESS STEEL CENTER FIRE RIFLE BORE BRUSHES Reviews & Ratings

Since darn near as many bore brushes get used in the shop as get sold, we’ve packed these custom-made, top quality brushes in bulk paks to make them more convenient and less expensive. The shank is one-piece, looped and wound (not two, twisted together and chopped off).


Stainless Steel Bore Brush - For severely leaded, fouled or rusted bores, the aggressive cleaning action of a stainless steel brush can help get them clean. However, the aggressive action accelerates wear, and regular use can shorten barrel life.


SPECS:
  • Bristles: Available in stainless steel. Shank:
  • Steel, looped and wound.
  • Overall length: 3.27" (8.3cm)
  • Threads: .17 and.20 cal. 5-40 threads, all others 8-32 thread.

This is a quick and easy way too clean case necks

Used Spartingly they work well
I use these brushes sparingly on old bore Winchesters in 38-40 to delead. They work well and don't damage the bores. Take care and don't over do it and you can keep your cowboy bores in nice shape.

Great Cleaning Brush
Cleans rifle bore fast. Gets rid of all copper and carbon. Great to use by wrapping patch around to get cleaning solution on all interior barrel surfaces.
5
Agressive cleaning brush
I will be using these mainly for cleaning inside the neck of brass. They clean all the carbon/stains right out of the neck. These brushes are very stiff. Be careful when using them on surfaces that you don't want scratch. I will have many uses for these in the workshop.

Best cleaning brush I have found
Used to clean my 12 GA competition shotgun that has drop in chokes. They do much better job than the 12 GA brushes.

Best for cleaning case necks of deposits
I handload my ammo. I use these stainless steel brushes to clean the carbon and deposits from the necks of fired cases AFTER sizing them and prior to reloading, so as to get a consistent coefficient of friction between the bullet and neck. This gives lower standard deviation of muzzle velocity. I use SS, rather than bronze brushes because they are faster, more aggressive, and efficient. They outlast bronze by an order of magnitude. It only takes 2 or 3 seconds when chucked into a power drill; in and out fast. Saves time. Doesn't harm the cases at all. After doing about 25-50 cases, I reverse the rotation direction of my drill, since the bristles will eventually "bend over" a certain amount. Works great; lasts a long time.
