Boresnakes, can't live without them. - Hoppe's 9 Rifle Cleaning Boresnake Den Rope

Don't know when they started manufacturing these things but since I started shooting again I always have them with me. I use them at the range and at home for cleaning. I have one in 22-5.56, 25-6.5 and 30-7.62. Cleaning rods are relagated to the occasional oiled patch through the chamber and barrel, even though you can oil the bore snake as well, which also works neat.
