The Pro-Shot 22RTO Tornado Bore Brush delivers superior cleaning performance for .22 caliber, .223 Remington, and 5.56mm NATO rifles through its innovative spiral wound brass construction. This specialized bore brush removes stubborn fouling and carbon buildup that standard brushes often leave behind. The tornado design creates maximum surface contact while preventing damage to rifling.
What Makes This Different
The spiral wound brass construction sets this brush apart from conventional straight-bristle designs. Standard bore brushes push debris forward, often compacting fouling rather than removing it completely. The tornado pattern creates a scrubbing action that lifts carbon and copper deposits from groove surfaces. This design reduces the number of passes needed for thorough cleaning while extending brush life.
Key Features
- Spiral wound brass bristles for aggressive fouling removal without rifling damage
- #8-32 thread pitch fits most standard cleaning rods and systems
- Compatible with .22 LR, .223 Remington, and 5.56mm NATO chambers
- Tornado design prevents bristle deformation during use
- Brass construction resists corrosion from cleaning solvents
- Loop design maintains consistent bore contact pressure
- Professional-grade construction for high-volume cleaning operations
Competitive shooters and military armorers rely on this brush for match-grade barrel maintenance. The brass material removes copper fouling effectively while remaining softer than steel barrel surfaces. Law enforcement agencies specify this brush for duty rifle maintenance programs where reliability cannot be compromised. The spiral design works particularly well with modern cleaning solvents, creating mechanical action that enhances chemical cleaning effectiveness.
