Brownells Standard Line Stainless 6.5Mm Rifle Brush 12 Pack
The Brownells Standard Line Stainless 6.5mm Rifle Brush 12 Pack gives you a full year's worth of bore brushes at a price that makes sense for shooters who clean their own rifles. Whether you're running a 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 PRC, or any other common 6.5mm chambering, these stainless steel brushes are built to handle fouled, leaded, or neglected bores with aggressive cleaning action that actually works. Buying in bulk cuts the per-brush cost dramatically—perfect for the reloader, competitive shooter, or hunter who goes through brushes and doesn't want to keep reordering.
Each brush features a one-piece, looped and wound stainless steel shank—not the cheaper twisted-and-chopped design—so you get durability and a secure fit on your cleaning rod. Stainless construction is your go-to choice when a bore needs serious work: leaded residue, heavy copper fouling, rust, and stubborn carbon all yield to the aggressive bristle action. The tradeoff is real, though: stainless bristles do accelerate bore wear with regular use, so reserve these for deep cleaning when you really need them, not as your everyday maintenance brush.
At 3.27 inches overall length, these brushes fit standard cleaning rod setups. The 8-32 thread matches virtually all modern rifle cleaning rods. Stock a dozen and you won't be caught short between hunting seasons or during a range day when a backup brush comes in handy.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these brushes work with my 6.5 Creedmoor or 6.5 PRC?
Yes. The 8-32 thread and 6.5mm diameter are standard across modern 6.5mm rifle cartridges, so these brushes fit any common 6.5mm bore with a standard cleaning rod.
When should I use stainless steel brushes instead of bronze?
Stainless bristles deliver much more aggressive cleaning action and are ideal for bores with heavy fouling, lead buildup, rust, or stubborn carbon that bronze won't tackle. The tradeoff is that regular stainless use accelerates bore wear, so use them for deep cleaning when you really need them, not as your routine maintenance brush.
What's the advantage of buying a 12-pack?
Bulk packs like this one keep a full year of brushes on hand at a lower cost per brush than single units. If you reload, hunt regularly, or shoot competitively, having backups ensures you're never caught without one.
Do these fit standard cleaning rods?
Yes. The 8-32 thread is the industry standard for most modern rifle cleaning rods. At 3.27 inches long, they fit standard cleaning rod setups.
