The Traditions A1284 brass jag delivers precise patch alignment and superior bore contact for thorough .50 caliber muzzleloader cleaning. This threaded cleaning accessory ensures consistent patch tension while protecting rifling from damage during maintenance sessions.
What Makes This Different
Unlike steel jags that can scratch rifling or aluminum versions that wear quickly, this brass construction provides the ideal balance of durability and bore protection. The precisely machined 10-32 threading creates a secure connection to standard cleaning rods, while the tapered design holds patches firmly without bunching. Brass naturally resists corrosion from cleaning solvents and maintains its shape through hundreds of cleaning cycles.
Key Features
- Solid brass construction resists corrosion and protects barrel rifling
- Standard 10-32 threading fits most cleaning rod systems
- Optimized diameter for .50 caliber muzzleloader bores
- Tapered design ensures proper patch fit and alignment
- Knurled grip area allows hand-tightening without tools
- Compatible with cotton and synthetic cleaning patches
- Precision machined for consistent performance
This jag excels in both field cleaning and detailed maintenance routines. The brass material won't spark against steel components, making it safe for use with residual powder deposits. Hunters appreciate the compact size for portable cleaning kits, while competitive shooters rely on its consistent patch placement for thorough bore preparation. The corrosion-resistant finish withstands exposure to harsh cleaning chemicals and moisture.
