You need to protect the rifling at the muzzle from being gouged by the cleaning rod and any debris carried by it. Many rods come with a plastic cone that fits in the muzzle to prevent contact. If the rifling wears unevenly, you can kiss your accuracy goodbye, ask me how I know.

but since its a Marlin, the bolt can be removed for cleaning from the breach end, which is the better way to clean.
