•Lyman's New Universal Bore Guide Set Protects the Chamber and Bore on .17 to .416 Caliber Rifles – Including the AR-15

This set is designed to direct and center the cleaning rod and jag through the chamber. This protects both the chamber and the bore from abrasion by the cleaning rod during regular cleaning. "Universal" means that this set will fit most bolt actions and even includes a special adapter sleeve for the AR-15. Precision machined from durable, anodized aluminum, the set comes with interchangeable tips that cover bore sizes from .17 up to .416 and the thread-on nozzles prevent the guide from sticking in the chamber. The guide's specially machined port makes applying solvent to the inserted cleaning patch easier and neater than trying to push a wet patch into the open end of the guide. The Universal Bore Guide Set works with most cleaning rods like Lyman's new Universal Cleaning Rod System and Jag and Brush Set.

• Lyman's New Universal Cleaning Rod System is Ready for Any Handgun or Rifle

The comfortable, chemical-resistant handle is interchangeable for all rod lengths and calibers. The rods can be purchased individually in sizes of 12", 26", 36" and 44" and in calibers ranging from .17 to .45. The Universal Cleaning Rod System includes the Universal Handle plus the four most popular rods: 12" (22-26 Cal), 12" (27-45 Cal), 36" (22-26 Cal), and 36" (27-45 Cal). This system is designed to handle all handguns and rifles with two 12" and two 36" rods that thread into the ergonomic swivel handle. Like the handle, the cleaning rods are chemical resistant. In addition, the rods are machined from spring steel and have a tough, non-abrasive proprietary epoxy coating. They are threaded to mount standard 8-32 jags and brushes like those in Lyman's new 26-Piece Complete Jag and Brush Set. The rods and Universal Handle are also available separately and a special .17 caliber rod is also offered.

• Lyman's New 26 Piece Complete Jag & Brush Set Covers .17 - .45 Caliber Cleaning needs

The new set keeps your bore cleaning necessities protected and organized in a durable, hinged storage container. Containing 26 pieces organized by caliber, this set has slots for each jag and brush from .17 to .45 calibers. The hinged covers are see-through and slots are clearly marked for quick selection. All jags and brushes use standard 8-32 thread except the .17 caliber, which uses a 5-40 thread. These jags and brushes are designed to work perfectly with Lyman's new line of Cleaning Rods.
