Bore Tech Bore Tech V Stix, 22 Cal-6.5Mm 30 Inch

The Bore Tech V Stix is a 30-inch rifle cleaning rod designed for .22 to 6.5mm caliber firearms. Built around a caliber-specific steel core and protective coating engineered to resist chemical corrosion, this rod delivers durability without the premium price tag that often comes with quality bore maintenance tools. Whether you're maintaining a rimfire plinker or a centerfire hunting rifle, the V Stix gives you a barrel-safe rod that handles the job reliably.

What sets the V Stix apart is its handle design: a cushioned grip with a ball-bearing system that reduces friction and makes the repetitive motion of rod strokes easier on your hands during longer cleaning sessions. The ball-bearing system is an industry standard for good reason — it minimizes wear on both the rod and your rifle's bore. Brass ferrules threaded for a female connection ensure a secure fit while protecting your barrel from the harder steel core underneath.

Color-coded to match its caliber range, the V Stix integrates into your cleaning kit without confusion. It's a straightforward, no-nonsense approach to bore care: quality construction, barrel-safe materials, and functional ergonomics at a price that respects your budget. If you're tired of flimsy rods that bind or cheap handles that fatigue your grip, the Bore Tech V Stix delivers the foundation of a solid rifle maintenance routine.
