My choice has become a 5mm-39" Carbon Fiber Rod by Breakthrough Clean Technologies. www.breakthroughclean.com
I also use their 5mm-12" pistol rod to clean the chamber. Both are useable for .22 thru .50 Cal weapons and use 8-32 threaded attachments. Reasonably priced also.

To the IR 50/50 shooting brotherhood my days of competing has sadly ended. As those of you who know me health issues have continued to plague me and have now even limited my mobility. I will miss seeing and talking to many of you who I have come to know over the years.
I want to urge everyone...
Concur w/ used Cooper Rifles.
Used Cooper TRP Mdl 57's are out there. Very good entry level Bench Rest Rifle for 10.5-13.5 and UL Class competitions.

Creeping Crud
Day 6 of the "unspecified" VIRUS. Visited Togus ER yesterday. Treatment was IV to rehydrate, magnesium tab, and Dr. Advice to take Imodium AD after bathroom trips. So there is no medical explanation for this case of THE REVENGE out here either Pete.
Hind Sight
It was plugged, as indicated by the P, The scorer and referees made their call sports fans. It is a 250-25X accomplishment period. In Golf the shooter would be buying however.
Condolences
The Marines final Log Book entry made, his shooters journal closed, what will remain is his memory and dedication to our pastime. A rifle volley, Taps, and a Folded Flag his just reward. Rest in peace Sir. Prayers for his family.

Good morning Pete. Glad to see you are still around. This is as good a time as any to get my reservation in for the Sporter/3Gun State and Regional shoots. Regards Klayton.
