WEAPONS CARE SYSTEM PELLETS Reviews & Ratings

Innovative and efficient system cleans rifle and handgun barrels with a minimum of effort and mess. Slip two felt pellets on the cleaning rod adapter, apply your favorite solvent and push through the bore to rapidly scrub out dirt and fouling. Pellets fit snugly to easily follow the rifling for fast, efficient cleaning; as you withdraw the rod, the front pellet falls off while the rear pellet polishes the bore. Lets you apply oil, cleaning solvents, J-B® Bore Cleaner or Moly Bore Paste easily with minimal mess.

Plain pellets are made from a highly absorbent, hardened felt

Super Intensive pellets also have interwoven brass fibers for even greater scrubbing action to quickly clean heavily fouled barrels. All require cleaning rod adapter. SPECS: Felt, white. 3/8' (9.5mm) long.

Made for .22, but Wouldn't Work in a .22

After watching YouTube videos I bought the 22 Caliber Super Intensive Pellets along with the 22 Caliber Adapter to clean the barrels of my .22's. I put the pellets on the adapter and it was impossible to get them to go into any of the barrels of my .22's. It was a complete waste of money.

Shorted 2nd time

This is my second time purchasing this product. I give the product 5 stars for functionality, but only one star because this is the second time I have bought these and paid for 50 or 80 and have been shorted. The first time I bought the 30 cal 50/pk and only received 35 in the box. I called and got the right amount, this time I bought the 22 cal 80/pk and only got 74. Not going to call again, just not going to ever purchase these again, they have a problem with quality control apparently and for this to happen 2 times in a row tells me I need to take my business elsewhere.

DOES NOT WORK

can not get it to fit in AR15 barell.Also does not fit well on Dewey cleaning rod.

Not for .22 rimfire

Great idea,but the pellets are really to large for the .22 rimfire. Threads are made to fit a Dewey cleaning rod male 8x36 thread not standard 8x32 female. If you want to adapt to stardard rod, you will need adapator 22A from Dewey. Then you still will not have a flush fit between your rod and adaptors. Even with a snug bore guide you could end up damaging the barrel.

Didn't work as stated

Just tried to use it on a AR15 and could not push it through. The second "threaded on" pellet expands too large to fit the bore. The first pellet goes through fine by itself.

Does not fit 9mm

I have used several sizes of VFG pellets for a couple of years - love them!!! This size DOES NOT FIT a 9mm barrel (too large). It fits a 40 cal just fine. Brownell's tried to help but unles you use these, you wouldn't understand. The other sizes are fine.
