If you are a shooter, you need a cleaning rod. Yes, there are other ways to clean a barrel, but a cleaning rod is indispensable to your bench. Yes, I like Hoppes Bre Snakes, and yes, I use them. But, for a deep cleaning, nothing beats a good rod and a brush.
I realized last night that I had no clue where my .22 caliber rod had gotten off to. I know exactly where my rod for medium bores is hanging, but the .22 rod seems to have grown feet and wandered off. I'm a big fan of Dewey rods, so I went to my favorite retailer and ordered one. It will get here in a few days, and in the meantime, I need to pull my bench away from the wall and screw a clip to the back of it so that the rod will have a home.
Dewey rods are a little more expensive, but they are really nice.
