The Tipton 777888 Universal Bore Guide eliminates rod contact with the barrel crown and chamber, preventing damage during cleaning that can destroy accuracy. This precision-machined aluminum system includes interchangeable muzzle guides for proper rod alignment across multiple rifle calibers.
What Makes This Different
Unlike basic cleaning rods that scrape against barrel surfaces, this bore guide system maintains perfect rod alignment throughout the cleaning stroke. The universal design accommodates bolt-action rifles from .17 caliber through .50 BMG with included muzzle guide inserts. Precision tolerances ensure the cleaning rod never touches critical barrel surfaces that affect accuracy.

Professional gunsmiths and precision shooters rely on bore guides to maintain barrel condition during routine cleaning. The system prevents the rod flex and misalignment that causes microscopic scratches in the barrel throat and crown. Competition shooters particularly benefit from the accuracy preservation, as even minor crown damage can open groups significantly. The aluminum construction withstands repeated use with solvents and cleaning chemicals without degradation.
