I know there are other threads on this, but I would like to get some clarification on this. Alot of people swear by the Boresnake. I've looked at these and am interested. Do you have to use cleaning fluid on the boresnake or just pull it through as it?
I looked at the Otis kits also, they seem to consist of a flexible metal cable that pulls the cleaning patches through the barrel, I take it the metal cable with its attached brass patch holder wont damage the barrel?
Right now I use three piece aluminum rods for cleaning my rifles and handguns, and have done so for years, but recently have heard that these will affect the accuracy after a while due to the aluminum wearing the barrel interior.
What do you guys/gals suggest for the best and safest (for the gun) cleaning?
