RE: Bore Brushes
I agree with jmfa1957 s post . To add a bit, I have found the Otis brushes to be fuller than other brushes and they're 15 thosandths oversized for a more agressive cleaning. They have a brass core so not to damage your barrel.
I would also say that the Otis pull through system is a better alternative for cleaning you semi s and lever action guns.
