Otis FGRC264 Ripcord 6.5mm/.264/.260 Cal Rifle Cleaning Cord, 5-40" Thread, Nomex/Rubber, 36" Long

The Otis FGRC264 Ripcord is a 36-inch rifle cleaning cord designed for 6.5mm, .264, and .260 caliber firearms. Unlike traditional cleaning rods that can wear out bores and require disassembly, the Ripcord uses a pull-through cable system with a 5-40" threaded connection point. The cord itself is constructed from Nomex and rubber—durable materials that won't damage rifling while you're running patches and solvents downrange. If you shoot precision rifles in any of these mid-caliber cartridges and want a gentler, faster cleaning method that sets up in seconds, this is your answer.

Ripcord technology lets you clean from the chamber without removing your barrel or taking apart your action. You simply attach a patch or brush to the cord, thread it through, and pull. The Nomex-and-rubber composition resists solvent degradation and won't leave residue or scratches. The 5-40" threads are standard on most Otis cleaning kits and accessories, so this cord integrates easily into a larger setup if you already own other Otis gear.

Whether you're breaking in a new 6.5 Creedmoor, maintaining a .260 Rem precision rifle, or keeping a .264 Win Mag field-ready, the Ripcord cuts cleanup time and extends bore life compared to traditional rod-and-jag methods. At 36 inches, it's long enough for most rifle barrels, and the lightweight, cordless design means no clanking cases or getting jammed on your bench during matches or hunting season.

Frequently Asked Questions

What calibers does this Ripcord fit?

The FGRC264 is designed for 6.5mm, .264, and .260 caliber rifles. If you shoot 6.5 Creedmoor, .260 Rem, .264 Win Mag, or similar mid-caliber cartridges, this cord will work with your barrel's bore diameter.

Is the Ripcord compatible with other Otis cleaning kits?

Yes. The 5-40" threaded connection is Otis's standard attachment point, so this cord works with other Otis accessories and cleaning kits that use the same threads.

How does this cord clean better than a traditional rod?

The Ripcord is a pull-through system that eliminates the friction and repetitive contact of a rod running in and out of the bore. The Nomex and rubber materials won't scratch rifling or leave residue, and there's no disassembly—you simply thread it through and pull patches or brushes down in one smooth motion.

What's the total length, and will it work on my barrel?

The cord is 36 inches long, which accommodates most rifle barrels of standard length. It's designed to reach from the chamber to the muzzle on typical hunting and target rifles in these calibers.
