Otis FGRC330 Ripcord 7.62mm/.30-06/.30-30/.308 Cal Rifle Cleaner - 8-32" Thread, Nomex/Rubber, 36" Long

The Otis FGRC330 Ripcord is a breech-to-muzzle rifle bore cleaner designed for .30-06, .308, .30-30, and 7.62mm centerfire rifles. This 36-inch pull-through system combines a molded rubberized core with heat-resistant Nomex fibers to trap fouling and debris in a single pass from chamber to muzzle. If you're running centerfire rifles at the range or in the field, the Ripcord eliminates the tedious process of running multiple patches and brushes—one pull does the heavy lifting.

The Nomex outer layer is the same heat-resistant synthetic material trusted by military personnel, firefighters, and professional racers. It won't melt or degrade even if your barrel is still warm after shooting, and it works aggressively to loosen and capture fouling particles as it moves through the bore. The helix design engages the rifling along the entire length of the barrel, ensuring consistent contact and a thorough 360-degree clean. The rubberized core keeps that Nomex surface pressed firmly against the bore walls, delivering more effective cleaning than nylon-based pull-throughs.

Construction is straightforward and rugged: coated solid brass threads (8-32 standard) won't scratch or damage your bore, and the rigid materials hold up better than softer alternatives. The threaded ends also let you stack additional Otis cleaning components if your setup calls for it. Breech-to-muzzle cleaning is simple—insert the longer, narrower end into the chamber and pull straight through toward the muzzle. Repeat as needed until fouling stops appearing. Always use the correct caliber for your rifle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Ripcord work with my .308 bolt-action rifle?

Yes. The Otis FGRC330 is designed for .308 Winchester and other calibers in its range (.30-06, .30-30, and 7.62mm). Always verify that you're using the correct caliber-specific cleaner for your rifle.

Can I use this immediately after shooting while the barrel is still hot?

Yes. The Nomex outer layer is heat-resistant up to 700°F, the same material used in professional racing suits and military gear. It's designed to handle warm barrels without degrading.

What's the difference between the Ripcord and running patches through a bore rod?

The Ripcord is a one-pass system that combines brushing and patch functions in a single pull. The molded rubberized core and Nomex fibers work together to loosen and trap fouling simultaneously, eliminating multiple passes with separate brushes and patches.

Can I add other cleaning components to the threaded ends?

Yes. The 8-32 standard threads allow you to attach compatible Otis cleaning components to customize your cleaning setup if desired.
