[QUOTE="Sflutes, post: 1579807, member: 106464"] IMO you should give up on the nylon brushes, and of course never use stainless. Buy your bronze bristled, brass cored, brushes by the dozen, and retire them when they are no longer tight in the bore. (Save a few for case necks.) To extend their lives, rinse them in a little rubbing alcohol (from a flip top solvent bottle) when you are done. That should stop the copper solvent from eating the bristles, and evaporate quickly. What kind of cleaning rod and guide are you using? Do you have something to hold your rifle while you are cleaning it? As long as you are getting good results on the target, I wouldn't get crazy about having a factory barrel spotless inside all the time. It may be counterproductive. Heck, it may even be for a match barrel. It depends on the individual barrel. [/QUOTE]
