Ronin Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 Pro shot do a clever action cleaning kit that holds a cleaning pad at 90 degrees to the boreline - excellent for cleaing the lug abutments, I flush out my chamber with the muzzle down with brake cleaner when I clean the rifle, then blow out from chamber to muzzle with light blows of compressed air works a treat.

craigyboy Posted June 1, 2008 Report Share Posted June 1, 2008 I do a similar thing to silent, I cut down an old rod and using an oversized jag I wrap around a 3" shotgun patch, stick it in the chamber and give it a few good swirls, on the way out it usually catches up in the lug recess as well so it gets a bit of a cleaning. Works for me anyhow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6mmBR Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 I use a .410 wool mop on an old pistol cleaning rod. Also Sinclair International do kits for not a lot of money. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

v-max Posted June 2, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Hello & cheers for input i have had a look at the sinclair & liked the look & not bad price. I have used my 410 kit to mop the chamber/clean it carefully. I want to get in behind the lugs etc & wipe clenn but think the sinclair is the tool i will go for.

6mmBR Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 I've got a Sinclair recess lug tool and it works very well, the .410 mop is great for drying chambers. Cheers Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alycidon Posted June 2, 2008 Report Share Posted June 2, 2008 Another vote for the Sinclair lug tool and a .410 mop. A Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
