Brownells Special Line Brass Rifle Brush 35/38/357 Caliber 12 Pack
A quality rifle bore brush is one of those small investments that protects a major one. The Brownells Special Line Brass Rifle Brush in 35/38/357 caliber is built for shooters who take barrel care seriously—whether you're maintaining a precision rifle, a hunting gun, or any firearm you depend on. This 12-pack gives you enough brushes on hand for regular cleaning cycles without cutting corners on quality.
What sets these brushes apart is their construction. The brass shank is looped and wound in one piece—not twisted together and cut short—which means a more durable tool that won't fray or separate with heavy use. The coupling is also brass, specifically designed to be non-scratch so you can clean your bore confidently without fear of marring that all-important rifling. The bristles themselves are phosphor bronze, a tough wire that scrubs away fouling, powder residue, and copper buildup effectively while standing up to repeated use across multiple cleaning sessions.
Whether you're a reloader who cleans between every shooting session, a hunter running a pre-season maintenance routine, or someone who simply respects their equipment, having a reliable brush matters. The Brownells Special Line delivers the brass construction and quality bristles that serious shooters expect, and buying a 12-pack means you'll always have a fresh brush ready rather than rationing a single worn-out one across several guns.

Frequently Asked Questions
What thread size do these brushes use?
The 35/38/357 caliber brushes come with an 8-32 male thread, which fits standard rifle cleaning rods with that specification.
Why is a brass shank better than a steel one?
Brass is softer than steel, which means it won't scratch or damage your barrel if it makes contact with the bore walls during cleaning. The looped and wound construction adds durability without sacrificing that non-abrasive property.
How many brushes come in a pack?
This is a 12-pack, giving you multiple brushes for different firearms or to rotate through regular cleaning sessions.
What makes phosphor bronze bristles good for bore cleaning?
Phosphor bronze is a tough wire that effectively scrubs away fouling, powder residue, and copper buildup. It holds up well to repeated use and won't shed or degrade quickly like softer materials.
