The Hoppe’s BoreSnake .177 Caliber Air Gun Den (brand part no. 24009D) from Hoppe’s is a one-pull, pull-through bore cleaner that replaces a full rod-and-patch session with a single fast pass. Sized for .177 caliber air rifles, this version skips the integrated bronze brush that standard BoreSnakes use, since abrasive bronze bristles aren’t recommended in a rifled air gun barrel. The lid of the reusable Den case doubles as a pull handle that snaps back into the case for storage, so there’s no loose cord rattling around a range bag. It’s built to live in a range bag, backpack, or truck console for a fast clean between strings or after a hunt.

Key Specifications

• .177 caliber air gun sizing matches the cord and cleaning pad to the bore diameter without an abrasive brush that could damage a rifled air barrel.
• cotton and nylon cord surface clears loose debris from the bore with far more surface area than a single cleaning patch.
• 4.1-inch reusable Den case is compact enough to stash in a range bag, plate carrier pouch, or glove box.
• pull-handle lid snaps back into the case for storage, so there’s no loose cord to tangle.
• washable, reusable design means one BoreSnake handles hundreds of passes instead of being thrown away like a patch.
• one-pass cleaning design finishes what used to take several rod-and-patch passes in a single pull.
• compact, portable format fits in a range bag, backpack, or glove box without adding bulk.
• no cleaning rod required eliminates the rod, jag, and multiple patches a bench cleaning normally needs.
• felt-and-fiber cleaning surface lifts fouling from a soft air-rifle bore without the abrasion risk of metal bristles.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the Hoppe’s BoreSnake .177 Caliber Air Gun Den need a rod? No. It’s a pull-through cleaner, so no separate cleaning rod is required to run it through the bore.

Is the Hoppe’s BoreSnake .177 Caliber Air Gun Den reusable? Yes, it’s washable and reusable, so a single BoreSnake handles many cleaning sessions instead of being disposable.

Why doesn’t this version have a bronze brush? Air rifle bores are softer and more sensitive to abrasion than firearm bores, so this version relies on the cord’s cotton and nylon fibers instead of a bronze brush.
