Usage Tips
Select a brush that matches the caliber of your firearm. Brass or bronze brushes are ideal for removing fouling without damaging the barrel.
Lightly soak the brush with a suitable cleaning solvent (like Young’s Black Powder Cleaner or 009 Nitro Solvent) to help break down carbon, lead, or powder residue.
Whenever possible, insert the brush from the chamber end of the barrel to avoid damaging the crown (the muzzle’s edge), which is critical for accuracy.
Run the brush all the way through the barrel in one smooth motion. Avoid scrubbing back and forth, as this can cause bristle damage or uneven wear.
Repeat as Needed Make several passes (typically 5–10), reapplying solvent if necessary, until fouling is visibly reduced.
Follow with Patches After brushing, run dry patches through the barrel to remove loosened debris and solvent. Continue until patches come out clean.
Finish with Oil Apply a light coat of rust-preventing oil using a clean patch to protect the bore during storage.
A staple in firearm maintenance kits across the world.
