The Dewey Cleaning Rod Guide .35 Caliber (.358) is a muzzle or rod entry guide from Dewey (Dewey part no. C35), built to center a cleaning rod on .35 caliber (.358) instead of letting it wander off-axis. Cleaning a rifle from the muzzle without a guide risks the rod contacting and eventually wearing the crown, the single most accuracy-critical surface on a barrel. This guide centers the rod so repeated cleaning passes don’t slowly degrade accuracy over the life of the barrel. It’s inexpensive insurance for a barrel that’s otherwise cared for properly. Combine it with a rod and brush from our gun cleaning supplies lineup for a complete, crown-safe cleaning setup.

Key Specifications

• Bore diameter is sized for .35 Caliber (.358), so the fit is snug against the rifling instead of the sloppy pass-through of an oversized brush or rod.
