The Hoppe’s 3-Pack Bore Brush/Mop Set, .223/5.56mm (brand part no. 1461BK) from Hoppe’s is a dedicated bore brush sized to scrub carbon and copper fouling out of the rifling without damaging it. Built with bronze bristles for .223/5.56mm caliber rifle chamber bores, it is dense enough to break up hardened fouling in fewer passes than a worn-out or mismatched brush. Many major firearms manufacturers recommend a brush like this over relying on solvent alone to lift baked-on carbon and copper. It threads directly onto a standard cleaning rod, so it drops straight into an existing cleaning routine.

Key Specifications

• .223/5.56mm caliber rifle chamber sizing matches the brush diameter precisely to the bore, so bristles make full contact with the rifling.
• bronze bristle construction is dense and stiff enough to break up hardened carbon and copper fouling in fewer passes.
• standard threaded fitting lets the brush thread directly onto a cleaning rod already in the kit.
• three-piece brush-and-mop set covers chamber, bore, and mop-application needs in one purchase instead of buying each piece separately.
• chamber-and-bore coverage in one set handles both the chamber brush and bore brush/mop steps without buying separate tools.
