The Hoppe’s 9 Stainless Steel 36-Inch Rifle Cleaning Rod, .22-.284 Cal (Hoppe’s part no. RS22R) keeps a rifle bore straight and true while cleaning instead of relying on a flexible or segmented rod that can wander off-center. It’s a one-piece stainless steel rod specially designed to withstand tough scrubbing, providing the ultimate in durability and performance session after session. The handle is ergonomically designed with double ball bearings, letting the rod spin freely in hand so the brush or jag follows the rifling instead of twisting against it. At 36 inches, it’s sized for rifles chambered in .22 through .284 caliber.
