Ok, I clicked on the banner to check out the advertiser. From what I can tell, the Patchworm looks great ... anybody using it? What do you think?

I surely like the idea of a single kit for all my barrels, and I'd sure like to take care of them, as they cost a penny or two.

I use them quite frequently for my rimfires as well as my centerfire rifles and pistols. They are handy and fit well in a range/shooting bag. I would recommend them. I've been using them about a year. Don't use my cleaning rods much anymore.

I too use the patchworm. It is a great cleaning tool. I use it for light cleaning, running patches through with solvent, in between regular heavy cleanings with a rod and jag or brush. I have found that I can keep the barrel cleaner longer without a lot of harsh cleaning with rods, jags and brushes. It does not take the place of a cleaning rod, but provides a low impact method of removing minor barrel fowling. If you like a clean barrel, but cringe when using a rod and brush, then the patchworm may be for you.

I really like the Patchworm & what with the new cleaners on the market my Brushes are not getting much of a workout. I think it beat the Otis system because it's more of a jag than a loop type cleaner.

Easy cleaning
