I'll be able to pick up my new CZ 452 FS next Tuesday! I'm very excited, it's my first firearm purchase, and I look forward to getting into target shooting again (last time was in high school, many moons ago).
That said, I want to take good care of it. I know I don't like/trust the multi-piece rods, and would prefer something less likely to harm the bore. I've been looking at both the Hoppes Boresnake and the Patchworm. The Patchworm seems more straightforward, but I can see how the Boresnake would clean better, as the whole thing is a big long patch. I just dunno how you're supposed to use solvent on it, then dry out the bore, then put oil all w/o having to wash it inbetween steps. With the Patchworm I can just change patches, but the Patchworm doesn't have any brushes built into it, so would I need to buy a Dewey one-piece rod w/ a brush to augment the Patchworm?
Sorry for all the questions, but the 10 day wait is driving me nuts!
