Cleaning a .22 rimfire the right way starts with a rod that won't fight you, and the Bore Tech Bore Stix .22 Cal 30" Rimfire rod is about as refined as coated rods get. It runs a caliber-specific high-strength steel core wrapped in a low-friction, chemically resistant coating, so it stays rigid through the stroke with minimal bow or flex. The 30-inch working length covers most rimfire rifles and handles, and the free-floating dual ball bearing handle lets the rod spin and follow the rifling instead of dragging against it.
The headline feature here is the Proof-Positive tip. It's a replaceable, non-brass, female tip that puts an end to those false blue and green copper-fouling readings you get on patches when a brass rod meets a copper-removing solvent. That means when your patches finally come out clean, you can trust it. The female tip also threads directly to Bore Tech jags and brushes using standard 8-32 threading, so you swap accessories without hunting for adapters, and the smooth transition keeps hardware from catching on the crown when you pull the rod back through.
This is the dedicated rimfire version, and the difference matters. The .22 RF rod runs roughly .015" smaller in diameter than the centerfire version, right around a .195" shank, which helps it clear the ejectors and choked barrels you commonly find on rimfire rifles. If you shoot both, the good news is this rimfire rod works fine on a .22 centerfire bore too, so it pulls double duty.
The orange color-coded handle isn't just for looks. It gives you an at-a-glance reminder of which caliber the rod is set up for, wraps a comfortable non-slip rubber grip that won't chew up your stock, and rides on dual ball bearings for that effortless, hang-up-free rotation. Bore Tech also builds in an index dot system on the handle so you can reference your barrel's twist rate while you work. It's a rod that feels like it was designed by people who clean guns for real.
Yes. The rimfire rod is about .015" smaller in diameter than the centerfire version so it clears rimfire ejectors and choked barrels, but it works just fine on a .22 centerfire bore. If you shoot both, one rod covers you.
It's a replaceable, non-brass tip that eliminates the false copper-fouling readings you get with brass-tipped rods when using copper-removing solvents. Since the rod itself isn't brass, blue or green on your patches means real fouling from your bore, not the rod. The female tip also threads straight to jags and brushes without adapters.
The Bore Stix rimfire rod uses a standard 8-32 female tip. That fits Bore Tech's Proof-Positive jags and brushes, along with most common 8-32 rimfire accessories, so you can swap without an adapter.
When you're finished, just wipe the rod down with a damp rag or paper towel. The low-friction coating is durable and chemically resistant, so Bore Tech solvents wipe right off and the rod is ready for the next session.
