Description

Cleaning a big-bore rifle barrel shouldn't turn into a whole production. The Hoppe's BoreSnake Viper Den handles calibers from .416 and .44 up through .45-70, .458 SOCOM, and .460 Weatherby, all in a single pull-through motion. Drop the brass weight down the bore, pull the snake through, and the integrated bronze brush scrubs out carbon fouling while the braided tail sweeps up loose debris behind it. No rods to assemble, no fumbling with patches.

What Sets the Viper Den Apart

The Viper isn't just the standard BoreSnake with a new name. It runs a third bronze brush built into the rope, giving you roughly 50% more scrubbing power than the original design. That extra bite matters on the harder-fouling calibers this kit covers, especially after a range day with cast lead or heavy jacketed loads. The tail behind the brush carries a cleaning surface around 160 times larger than a standard patch, so one pass covers a lot of ground.

The Den Case Is the Real Convenience

The Den is a compact clear case with a built-in handle, and it's genuinely handy. The lid doubles as a pull handle for the snake, then snaps back into the case for tidy storage. It's sized to drop into a range bag or backpack without tangling, which keeps your brushes protected between trips. There's also a cone-shaped bore guide to help feed the snake straight into the barrel.

Built from brass, cotton, and nylon with bronze bristles, the BoreSnake is washable and reusable, so you're not tossing it after a few uses. Add a couple drops of Hoppe's solvent or oil to the front section before you pull, and you've got a quick maintenance tool that lives in the bag and stays ready. For anyone running lever guns, big-bore bolt actions, or a .458 SOCOM AR, this is one of the easiest ways to keep the bore in shape.

Frequently Asked Questions

What calibers does the BoreSnake Viper Den .416/.44/.45-70 kit fit?

This model covers .416, .44, .45-70, .458 SOCOM, and .460 Weatherby Magnum rifles. The brass weight on the pull cord is stamped with the size so you can confirm at a glance. It's built for big-bore rifle barrels, so match it to the caliber range printed on the tag.

How is the Viper different from the original BoreSnake?

The Viper adds a third bronze brush integrated into the rope, giving it about 50% more brush cleaning power than the original. That extra scrubbing helps on the heavier-fouling calibers this kit is made for. Everything else stays the same simple one-pass, pull-through design.

Can you wash and reuse the BoreSnake Viper Den?

Yes. The BoreSnake is machine washable and built to be reused many times over. Toss it in the wash when it gets grimy and let it dry before your next cleaning session.

Do you still need solvent or oil with a BoreSnake?

For best results, add a few drops of bore solvent or gun oil to the leading section of the snake before you pull it through. The brush and tail do the mechanical scrubbing, but solvent helps break down stubborn carbon and fouling. A dedicated lube zone on the Viper carries and deposits it as it passes the bore.
