A clean bore shoots better and lasts longer, and this little three-piece set from Hoppe's gives you the tools to keep your 12 gauge in good shape without overthinking it. Each piece is sized specifically for a 12 gauge shotgun, so you're not fighting a brush that's too tight or a mop that's too loose. All three thread onto a standard 5-16" shotgun adapter and go right on your cleaning rod.
The phosphor bronze brush is the workhorse here. The bristles are stiff enough to break up plastic wad residue and lead fouling but soft enough that they won't hurt your bore, and they've got a built-in memory that snaps them back to shape after each pass. Next up is the Tornado brush, known as the Gunsmith's Brush, with a spiral-wound stainless steel loop design instead of traditional bristles. That means no loose bristle ends to leave marks, and it does a great job agitating and grabbing fouling on the way through. Finish with the 100% cotton mop swab, which is soft, washable, and reusable to spread solvent or wipe the bore dry.
A lot of folks run a bore snake for quick trips, but when you want a real cleaning after a long day of clays or a duck season's worth of shooting, brushes and a mop do the job right. Having all three in one pack means you're not hunting around for the piece you're missing. The cotton swabs and the loop-style Tornado brush both hold up to repeated use, so this pack sticks around a while.
Run a solvent-soaked patch or the mop through first, follow with the bronze or Tornado brush to loosen everything, then finish with a clean, dry mop. Pair it with Hoppe's No. 9 or your solvent of choice and you've got a full bore-care routine. Keep in mind you'll need a 5-16" shotgun adapter for your rod if you don't already run one.
Yes, you'll need a cleaning rod and a shotgun adapter that matches the 5-16" thread pattern to attach these brushes and the mop. You'll also want a solvent like Hoppe's No. 9 to get the most out of the cleaning process. The kit covers the bore tools themselves, not the rod or cleaning fluid.
The phosphor bronze brush uses traditional bristles to scrub out lead and plastic wad fouling, and the bristles spring back to shape after each pass. The Tornado brush uses a spiral-wound stainless steel loop design with no bristle ends, so it agitates and grabs fouling without any loose tips. Many folks use both for a thorough clean, then finish with the cotton mop.
No, the mop is made of 100% soft cotton and is gentle on a smooth shotgun bore. It's great for spreading solvent before you brush and for wiping the bore clean and dry afterward. Since it's washable, you can rinse it out and reuse it plenty of times.
This particular set (part number 1459BK) is sized specifically for 12 gauge bores. Hoppe's makes the same style brush and swab kit in other sizes like 20 gauge and various rifle and pistol calibers, so make sure you grab the one that matches your firearm.
