Shotgun barrels and long rifles run 26" to 30" - and this 36" flexible gun cleaning cable provides the reach to clear them completely. Drop the cable through the breech, thread your bore brush or mop onto the exposed end at the muzzle, and pull it through the full length of the barrel. Breech-to-muzzle bore cleaning on long barrels without a three-piece rigid rod that flexes and wobbles inside the bore.
Break-action shotguns hinge open for easy breech access, but semi-auto and pump shotguns make rod-based cleaning awkward - the action gets in the way. A flexible gun cleaning cable navigates through the action and follows the bore smoothly regardless of barrel length or action type. For waterfowl hunters cleaning a 28" barrel in the field after a morning hunt, this cable and a bore brush fit in a jacket pocket. No rod sections to assemble, no bore guide to carry, no bench required.
Standard 8-32 thread connects to all gun cleaning accessories - brushes, jags, mops, slotted tips. For shotgun-specific attachments with 5/16-27 thread, use a thread adapter to bridge the gap. Coated stainless steel cable shrugs off solvents and coils flat. One bore cleaning cable that handles every long barrel in the safe.
