Description

There's a reason the BoreSnake earned its reputation as one of the fastest ways to clean a barrel. Instead of fussing with rods, patches, and a pile of little brushes, you drop the weighted end down the bore, pull it through, and you're done. This version is built for 28 gauge shotguns, so the bronze brush and rope are sized to fit the smaller bore of a sub-gauge sporting or field gun.

The cleaning happens in one smooth motion. As you pull, the integrated bronze brush loosens and scrubs carbon fouling, and the long woven tail follows right behind to swab everything out. That tail packs a surface area roughly 160 times larger than a standard patch, which is why a single pass gets you so much clean. Add a few drops of your favorite gun oil to the rope before the last pull and your barrel is ready to be tucked away for storage.

What Makes the BoreSnake Den Different

The Den is where this kit stands apart from the classic BoreSnake. Everything lives inside a compact clear case that keeps the rope contained and protected in your range bag or backpack, so you're not digging around for a wadded-up snake at the bottom of your gear. The lid isn't just a lid either. It snaps off and works as a pull handle, giving you a solid grip and better leverage when you're yanking the snake through the bore.

Keeping Your BoreSnake Den Ready to Go

One of the nicest things about the BoreSnake is that it's reusable and machine washable. When the rope gets gunked up after a season of shooting, toss it in the wash, let it dry, and it's good as new. Between that and the durable one-piece construction, this is a tool that stays in your kit for the long haul. Whether you're doing a quick swab at the range, a field wipe-down between rounds, or a thorough clean before putting the gun up, the BoreSnake Den handles it fast.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the BoreSnake Den actually clean the barrel?

You drop the weighted brass tip into the breech end and let it fall through the bore, then pull the rope all the way through. The integrated bronze brush scrubs out carbon fouling as it passes, and the thick woven tail follows behind to swab the barrel clean. One good pass usually does the job, though heavily fouled barrels may take a second pull.

Is this BoreSnake sized correctly for a 28 gauge shotgun?

Yes. This model is built specifically for 28 gauge bores, and the brass weight on the pull cord is stamped with the size so you can confirm it at a glance. Using the correct gauge matters, since a snake that's too big won't pull through and one that's too small won't scrub effectively.

Can I reuse the BoreSnake, or is it one-and-done?

It's fully reusable and machine washable. After it gets loaded up with fouling and solvent over time, just run it through the wash and let it air dry before your next use. The one-piece construction holds up well, so it should last through many cleaning sessions.

What is the Den case for and do I need it?

The Den is a compact reusable case that stores and protects the BoreSnake so it isn't rattling around loose in your range bag or backpack. The lid snaps off and works as a pull handle, giving you extra grip and leverage when you draw the snake through the bore. It's a handy upgrade over the classic clamshell packaging.
