The Dewey Coated Cleaning Rod 264/6.5 mm (.264) 40 In. is a coated cleaning rod from Dewey (listed under part number 22C40), made to run brushes, jags, and mops through 264/6.5 mm (.264) bores without flexing or binding. A cleaning rod is the one piece of gear that determines whether the rest of your kit actually works right, and a rod that bows or catches threads mid-stroke can do more harm than the fouling it’s meant to remove. This one is built to run true down the bore so brushes and jags track straight instead of scraping the rifling on their way through. It’s suited to routine range maintenance as much as a full strip-down cleaning after a hunt or a long day at the range. Add the right brush and patches from our gun cleaning supplies selection and this rod covers the core of a proper bore cleaning.

Key Specifications

• Bore diameter is sized for 264/6.5 mm (.264), so the fit is snug against the rifling instead of the sloppy pass-through of an oversized brush or rod.
• Built for rifle bores, matching the shorter, tighter cleaning runs a rifle action calls for.
• Coated finish rides through the bore without dragging brass or copper fouling back into the rifling.
• Threaded 8-36, the standard cleaning-rod thread pattern most brushes, jags, and mops in this size range already use.
• Overall length runs 40-inch, long enough to clear the bore in a single controlled pass on the firearm it’s sized for.
