Best cleaning rods for your barrel

Purpose of a cleaning rod

Every now and then I and my friends go to a nearby shooting range to challenge ourselves and to enhance our aiming skills as well, the last time when we went to a shooting range my gun was having malfunctions as the velocity of the bullets being fired were comparatively slower. My gun kept misfiring and all of a sudden it became extremely hard to pull the trigger which made me dejected as I had always cleaned and oiled my gun on regular basis, after that an instructor came and took my gun and he came back 20-30 minutes later and told me that the barrel of my gun was dirty, I informed him that my gun was recently oiled and cleaned but turned out that you also need to clean your barrel every now and then and specially after the gun is used. For this there are cleaning rods that come in different shapes and sizes to help you clean your barrel, the instructor even gave me a list of many cleaning rods like Hoppe’s RC22P Elite, Tipton Deluxe, Dewey Rods 22C30, Outers 41642 and Tipton 658539 Max Force. I went to the market to purchase a cleaning rod and I found myself in despair and confusion as was unable to select one for my own gun, so in order to ease you from that confusion I have mentioned below top 2 cleaning rods and also check this page for more information https://cleangunguide.com/best-gun-cleaning-rod-reviews

  1. Hoppe’s RC22P Elite

As I mentioned before, this was a recommendation by a professional instructor at the shooting complex and I can’t thank him enough as this is what I use and have no issues with it. HOPPE is one of those companies who continue to release new high quality and effective products, all of their produced goods are effective at functioning, so don’t expect anything less from this cleaning rod. The rod is made from carbon fiber and this does not only make it lightweight but also enables it to be invulnerable to heat, chemicals and corrosion making this a very suitable material for any rod. This is a one piece rod and is very sturdy and rigid as it doesn’t bend or break enabling it to be used frequently. Along with the cleaning rod you will also receive ball bearing which gives you access to smooth movement and rotation in the barrel of the gun.  As I mentioned before this rod doesn’t bend due to its superior quality which saves the side of the barrel from receiving any damage to the gun.

  1. Tipton Deluxe

Similar to HOPPE, Tipton also has a reputation of producing high quality gun gear. Just like the Hoppe’s RC22P Elite, this rod is also made by carbon fiber which makes this resistant to heat and rust. The rod isn’t flexible which assures the safety of the side of your barrel. To ensure smooth rotation the rod this comes with ball bearing which enables the smooth movement inside the barrel of the gun. This rod comes in variety of sizes and lengths to fit for your specific gun.
