Hoppe's 24010D BoreSnake .17 HMR Rifle Cleaner with Bronze Brush

The Hoppe's 24010D BoreSnake is a .17 HMR rifle cleaner engineered for fast, efficient bore maintenance between range sessions and hunts. Unlike patch-based cleaners, the BoreSnake uses a patented design that combines a bronze brush with a pull-through tail to scrub fouling and clear debris in a single pass. The integrated brush tackles carbon buildup while the tail's surface area—160 times larger than a standard patch—sweeps loose residue out of the bore, making it ideal for shooters who want reliable, no-fuss cleaning without disassembly.

Built for shooters who value speed and portability, this .17 HMR BoreSnake arrives with a compact carrying case—the Snake Den—that protects your cleaner during transport. The case's lid doubles as a pull handle, making it easy to grip when running the BoreSnake through your barrel. Whether you're packing for the range, a hunting trip, or an extended field session, the Snake Den fits neatly in a range bag or backpack without taking up much space.

The bronze brush construction ensures effective scrubbing action on rifle fouling without damaging bore integrity, and the all-in-one design eliminates the need to wrangle multiple patches and rod segments. This is maintenance gear designed for working shooters—the kind who clean on-site and move on to the next course or hunt without ceremony.
