TIPTON 6.5mm Caliber Cleaning Pellets – 100 Count
The Tipton 6.5mm Caliber Cleaning Pellets offer a felt-based alternative to traditional patches for keeping your rifle barrel clean and firing true. A 100-count pack with a nickel-plated jag designed for 6.5mm, these pellets make routine barrel maintenance faster and more convenient than standard cleaning patches. Whether you're breaking in a new barrel, managing residue after a range session, or maintaining a hunting rifle between seasons, pellets grip the bore more aggressively than fabric and can be easier to load and run downrange, especially when you're working through a fouled or leaded barrel.
Lead and powder residue accumulate with every shot, and regular cleaning extends barrel life and preserves accuracy. The felt construction of these pellets works on the same principle as patches but with the durability to handle repeated passes without shredding, which means less frustration and faster cleaning cycles. They're built tough enough for serious shooters who put rounds downrange regularly and want a no-nonsense bore maintenance tool that performs consistently across multiple cleanings.
Each pack is caliber-specific for 6.5mm, so you get the proper fit for your bore diameter—no oversizing or undersizing to worry about. The included jag is nickel-plated to resist corrosion, so you can store your cleaning kit long-term without worry. If you already have a cleaning rod and solvent, these pellets slot right into your workflow; if you're building out a barrel care system, they're a solid foundation for keeping precision rifles performing at their best.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are these pellets compatible with my 6.5 Creedmoor or other 6.5mm cartridges?
Yes. These pellets are designed for 6.5mm bore diameter, which is standard across 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5x55 Swedish, 6.5 PRC, and other 6.5mm rifle cartridges.
What's included in the 100-count pack?
Each pack contains 100 felt cleaning pellets and one nickel-plated jag sized for 6.5mm caliber. You'll need your own cleaning rod and bore solvent to use them.
How are these pellets better than traditional cleaning patches?
Pellets are durable felt construction that resists shredding with repeated use and are often easier to load onto a jag than patches. They grip the bore firmly to remove lead and powder residue effectively, and they speed up the cleaning process compared to patching.
Can I use these with my existing cleaning rod?
Yes, as long as your rod accepts a jag of 6.5mm diameter. The included nickel-plated jag threads onto your rod normally, just like any standard cleaning jag.
