Brownells Special Line Brass Rifle Brush 243/25 Caliber 12 Pack
A quality rifle brush matters more than most shooters realize—especially when you're caring for a precision barrel that groups tight. The Brownells Special Line Brass Rifle Brush 243/25 Caliber 12 Pack gives you a dozen brushes built specifically to clean without risk of damage. Each brush features a one-piece brass shank that's looped and wound for strength and safety, paired with a brass coupling that won't scratch the inside of your bore. If you run a 243 Winchester, 25-06 Remington, or any other cartridge in that bore diameter, these brushes are sized to work efficiently without forcing or binding.
The bristles are phosphor bronze scrubbing wire—tough enough to break up carbon and fouling but designed for longevity so you get real use out of each brush before replacement becomes necessary. The one-piece construction and no-scratch design mean you can focus on the job of cleaning rather than worrying about your brush marring the barrel that cost you good money. Whether you're maintaining a hunting rifle, a range gun, or a precision shooter, having a 12-pack on hand means you'll never reach for a questionable brush out of desperation.
At 3.27 inches overall length, these fit standard rifle cleaning rods and work with 8-32 male threads. Keep a pack in your cleaning kit and reach for them every time—no compromise on barrel care.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these work with my standard rifle cleaning rod?
Yes. The Brownells Special Line brushes use standard 8-32 male threads, which fit the vast majority of rifle cleaning rod systems. If you use a military-spec M16 cleaning rod, confirm your rod accepts 8-32 threads before ordering.
What's the advantage of a one-piece brass shank?
A one-piece looped and wound shank is stronger and more durable than a shank made by twisting two pieces together and cutting them off. It won't separate or fail during use, and the solid brass construction won't scratch your barrel bore.
Why buy a 12-pack instead of individual brushes?
Having multiple brushes on hand means you always have a fresh one available and never feel pressured to reuse a dirty brush. With a 12-pack, you can dedicate one brush to a specific gun or rotate them through multiple firearms in your collection without running short.
What calibers will these fit?
These brushes are sized for 243/25 caliber bore diameters, including cartridges like the 243 Winchester, 25-06 Remington, and similar rounds in that bore size.
