[QUOTE="CleanShot, post: 989824, member: 70364"] No offense taken and I appreciate you pointing me in the right direction. That does still leave me with the question of Tipton vs Dewey vs Proshot although as of now I don't see any Proshot rods that are coated so it's at least simplified. tl;dr; But I hope you don't get offended when I tell you this. Prior to asking my questions I did a equivalent google search "site:longrangehunting.com cleaning rods" as well as other related searches. I got more results than I could simply filter through in any logical way. As an FYI, that top right box does exactly the same thing is those keywords in google. I worked for two years on forum technology what I learned was that searching forums pulls up many results of which many are false positive. In fact, it's considered a forum's greatest downfall. All this is to say, a forum is a great place to ask question and use collective intelligence but it's generally not a good place to search for answers. However, if we were to take all the information gained by asking questions here and placing them on a wiki, we'd have a great reference tool. I hope that makes sense. [/QUOTE]
