[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 1969442, member: 93895"] There's going to be some one to post here who has a phobia for bores snakes. I do have them and occasionally use them if I'm burning powder that's has a habit of being really dirty to get some of the soot out. In a situation like that I might pull the snake through after each shooting session before I put the rifle back in the safe. I don't solely rely on them for a full cleaning. For a full cleaning, I use a carbon fiber rod, brass jags & patches along with bore tech carbon remover & copper remover. After I've pushed dry patches through to dry the barrel after cleaning, I will then take a shot gun mop to dry & clean the chamber. Sometimes but not always, I will pull a bore snake through as the last step to dry everything and get out any lent or loose threads left from the patches. Bore snakes can be useful for some things.
