The Hoppe's BoreSnake 24035D transforms 12 gauge shotgun maintenance from a multi-step process into a single pull-through operation. This innovative bore cleaning system eliminates the need for separate brushes, patches, and cleaning rods while delivering superior cleaning performance.
What Makes This Different
Unlike traditional cleaning methods that require disassembly and multiple tools, the BoreSnake combines brushing and swabbing action in one continuous motion. The integrated bronze brush scrubs fouling while the trailing cleaning surface removes residue and applies protective oil. This design reduces cleaning time by up to 75% compared to rod-and-patch systems while providing more consistent bore contact.
Key Features
- Integrated bronze brush removes carbon buildup and plastic wad fouling
- Machine-washable construction allows hundreds of cleaning cycles
- Caliber-specific sizing ensures proper bore contact for 12 gauge chambers
- Compact storage - fits in shooting bag or gun case

Field testing demonstrates the BoreSnake's effectiveness across hunting, sporting clays, and tactical applications. The system handles everything from light target loads to heavy waterfowl ammunition residue. Multiple passes through heavily fouled barrels restore accuracy without scratching or damaging bore surfaces. Weather-resistant materials maintain performance in wet hunting conditions.
