There are several really good range rods on the market, but the limiting thing is the good ones are expensive, but it is also something you are not going to wear out...

The absolute best (IMO) is the Knight rod built by Lehigh...

After that one this one served me really well for years...

With the Knight rod you get a muzzle protector, with the Tipton you will need to order one - but they are not expensive at all.
