Dewey 20 Cal 22 Rf 38'' Cleaning Rod Stainless
The Dewey 20 Cal 22 RF 38" cleaning rod in stainless steel is purpose-built for .22 rimfire and .20 centerfire rifle owners who demand precision cleaning without compromise. Unlike coated rods designed for larger calibers, this uncoated stainless steel rod delivers the durability competition shooters and serious rimfire enthusiasts rely on. At 38 inches (measured without handle), it provides the reach you need for most rifle-length barrels while remaining manageable for field or bench cleaning sessions.
Dewey rods have earned a reputation across competitive shooting disciplines for their hard-wearing construction and meticulous finishing. This rimfire-specific rod features female threads and arrives with a .20 caliber jag that works for both .22 rimfire and .20 centerfire cartridges, giving you immediate usability straight from the box. The polished stainless construction resists corrosion and won't degrade your bore with residue or coating particles—critical when cleaning precision rimfire rifles where bore condition directly impacts accuracy.
Whether you're maintaining a match-grade .22 LR, a dedicated rimfire hunting rifle, or a .20 centerfire, this rod's straightforward design keeps your cleaning routine efficient and repeatable. No coatings to flake, no guesswork about compatibility—just a solid, proven tool that works the same way after your first cleaning and your thousandth.
