Birchwood Casey Gun Cleaning Patches .38-.45 Cal Cotton 2.25" - 500 Pack

Proper gun maintenance starts with the right tools, and Birchwood Casey gun cleaning patches are a staple for anyone who takes bore care seriously. These .38-.45 caliber cotton patches come in a 500-pack that'll keep you supplied for years of range trips, hunting seasons, and routine maintenance. At 2.25 inches, they're sized to work efficiently with standard cleaning rods and bore guides for medium and large handgun calibers.

What sets these patches apart is their construction: a cross-weave cotton pattern that resists shredding and lint, meaning fewer fibers left behind in your bore. They're absorbent enough to hold solvent and cutting compound without falling apart, yet they work through the barrel cleanly. Whether you're running patches with a brush, following up after bore scrubbing, or doing a final dry pass, this design keeps the process straightforward and effective.

A 500-count pack is practical whether you shoot a single .45 ACP or rotate through a collection of medium-frame revolvers and semi-autos. Birchwood Casey has been supporting shooters since 1948, and these patches reflect decades of refinement in gun care products. Stock a pack in your cleaning kit and you won't be caught short when maintenance time comes around.
