bore brush??

Hi,

New guy here, bear with me. What bore brushes sre you using to clean the 6.5 Grendel? Any other tricks I need to know about?

Thanks

I don't think anyone makes a .264" bore brush so get a .270" brush. Bronze is always the way to go. Before buying, make sure the threads fit your cleaning rod.

I normally use a used .308 brush as mine are GI issue and the civilian bore brushes don't seem to last as long.

I will hose the bore brush out with carb cleaner after use. This way, your bore cleaner won't dissolve the brush and will clean it at the same time.

I also use a bore snake periodically when I don't have the time to pull out rods and brushes. I wouldn't recommend a bore snake all the time as it won't clean as well as the rod / wet patches / wet brush / wet patches / dry patches / carb cleaner routine.
