Brownells Standard Line Bronze Rifle Brush 22 Cal Centerfire 12 Pack
A quality bore brush is one of those consumables that gets worn out with regular use, which is why Brownells Standard Line Bronze Rifle Brush 22 Cal Centerfire 12 Pack offers serious value for shooters who maintain their own firearms. Whether you're breaking in a new rifle, running regular cleaning sessions after range days, or keeping a working gun in top shape, having a dozen brushes on hand means you're never caught short. Bronze bristles are the go-to choice for thorough, effective bore cleaning without the harshness of steel.
These brushes are built with a one-piece steel shank that's looped and wound—not two pieces twisted together and cut short. That construction matters: it means better durability and consistent performance across your cleaning kit. At 3.26 inches overall length, they're sized to work efficiently in standard rifle cleaning rods without excess overhang. The 22 centerfire models come with 8-32 threads, the industry standard for most modern rifle cleaning rods, so they'll fit your existing setup without adapters.
Buying a 12-pack makes sense if you shoot regularly or work on rifles in any capacity. You'll always have a fresh brush ready, and you won't have to baby a worn one through the next cleaning session. Stock a few packs and you're set for the season.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these brushes fit my rifle cleaning rod?
Yes, if your cleaning rod uses standard 8-32 threads, which covers the vast majority of modern rifles. These 22 centerfire brushes are equipped with 8-32 threads. If your rod uses a different thread pattern, you'd need an adapter or a different brush.
What's the advantage of the looped and wound shank design?
A one-piece looped and wound shank is more durable than two pieces twisted together and chopped off. It holds up better to repeated use and won't separate or fail prematurely, which matters when you're cleaning multiple rifles or shooting regularly.
Why buy a 12-pack instead of individual brushes?
Bore brushes wear out with use—bristles eventually fray or bend and lose effectiveness. A 12-pack gives you fresh brushes on hand so you're never forced to use a worn-out one, and the bulk format is more economical if you shoot often or maintain multiple firearms.
Are these brushes caliber-specific?
Yes, these are sized for 22 centerfire rifles. Brownells makes separate brushes for other calibers (.17, .20, and others), each sized to fit the bore diameter of its respective caliber.
