Ballistol FlexClean Bore Cleaning Rope .25-.27 Cal Pull-Through Cleaner

Description

The Ballistol FlexClean Bore Cleaning Rope is one of those tools you wish you'd had years ago. Sized for .25 to .27 caliber bores (6.3 to 7.2mm), it's a simple pull-through cord that gets your barrel clean fast without pulling the gun apart. Drop the brass weight down the chamber, pull it through in your shooting direction, and let the built-in balls and sponges do the work. That's the whole routine.

What makes it tick is a set of three rubber pressure balls woven into the cord and separated by sponge chambers. The balls are sized to match your caliber so they ride the full inner surface of the bore and push powder residue and fouling out the muzzle end. The sponges hold your cleaner and oil, so you can run solvent up front and a light coat of oil on the back to clean and protect in a single pass. It's a non-abrasive, brush-free design, which means no scratching the bore on a gun that just needs regular upkeep.

Where the .25-.27 FlexClean Rope Earns Its Keep

This is a range bag and hunting pack staple. Because it's compact and needs no tools, you can run it through the barrel right after your last shot, ideally while the barrel is still warm but not hot. Whether you're wrapping up a range session or field dressing gear after a hunt, it takes maybe a minute. It pairs best with Ballistol on the sponges to neutralize and lift powder residue, which is the stuff that does the most damage to a barrel over time.

Cleaning and Caring for Your FlexClean Cord

The cord and its parts are chemical-resistant and fully washable. When it gets grungy, warm water and a little dish soap brings it back, and it's built to be reused over and over. The caliber is engraved right on the brass weight and the whole thing is color coded, so you'll never grab the wrong size. It ships in a handy box with a hanging tab. Made in Germany.
