Tipton Universal Bore Guide with 3 Muzzle Guides for Firearm Cleaning

Usato spesso e con prodotti molto forti e non ho avuto mai problemi. Le plastiche e la vernice reggono bene.

Works fine, as good as they get, I suppose.

Certaine arme ne son pas compatible. La Savage MK2 en particulier.

I bought this bore guide to protect the throat and bore of my 7mm Rem Mag rifles. The bore guide comes with 3 different sized universal tips requiring you to find the one that fits your rifle the best. The brass handle is screwed into a plastic ring that can move forward and back when the brass handle is loosened up. Once you get the bore guide set in place just slide the handle forward, turn it down into the bolt lock, and tighten the brass handle (acts as a set screw). The rear opening of the bore guide allows you to start a brush or patch before applying solvent or oil through the open window on the end. This is a nice feature to keep you from making a mess moving from a solvent bottle to the bore guide and also keeps you from dripping all over the action when you're inserting a brush. So far so good on the quality of this product. I figure for the price if I only get 3-5 years worth of use out of it then it has more than paid for itself and I will definitely buy another. The fact that it will protect the throat and bore of my rifles adds that much more value to this product. Pros: ease of use, value, does what it's supposed to do, covers a wide range of bolt action rifles

Having been a shooter most of my life I must have spent hundreds of hours ramming a cleaning rod into the barrel of my latest rifle, hoping I wasn’t causing too much damage to the chamber in the process. I liked to think I was quite good at it. My latest purchase however, was an expensive precision rifle and I thought I would try a bore guide, hence I ordered the Tipton universal. What a difference! It fitted perfectly into the Tikka T3x and cut the cleaning time in half. I always put at least 20 patches through, more if I am using copper solvent. This keeps all the mess out of the chamber and receiver and stops you having to bounce the jag around the chamber before it feeds into the barrel. A couple of things to bear in mind: This bore guide fitted perfectly into the receiver of the Tikka which in 6.5 Creedmoor. I thought it would also fit my Sako 85 which is .223 but the adjustable collar will not fit into the receiver, just too big. I thought OK I’ll just hold it in place, however I then found the cleaning rod was not long enough to push the jag out of the barrel. Not the end of the world, just a little annoying for a ‘universal’ guide. If you don’t use a bore guide, start using one now, right now! Just make sure it fits.
