Thread: Cleaning rods

Dewey, Tipton and Boretech are all good rods. I have them all. Can't say one is better than the other. Dewey handles are fairly large and mightn't clear the top of the buttstock on some rifles so you either need to get a rod long enough or cut away about 40% of the handle length ways.

The handles are large but the rods can be bought in a variety of lengths up to 52 inches to avoid the problem you describe.

Correct. That's why I mentioned this in my previous post referring to the Dewey rods
