Cleaning a rifle is an essential part of gun ownership. It ensures the rifle functions properly, safely, and accurately. A clean rifle is also less likely to corrode or malfunction.
There are many different ways to clean a rifle, but the most common and effective method is to use a bore cleaner, a cleaning rod, and a patch. Bore cleaner is a chemical solvent that helps to dissolve fouling and debris from the bore of the rifle. The cleaning rod is used to push the patch through the bore, and the patch helps to remove the fouling and debris.
