shoot57 Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 i think you have to be quite gun make specific , i bought one for my cz223 and last week and removed the bolt only to find the guide wouldn't slide in as it was to big Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mft135 Posted December 21, 2008 Report Share Posted December 21, 2008 I can't see why you would need a bore guide normally i use normal .22 rim fire parker hale fixed rod with cotton swab on the end this works great on 243, or you can screw a brush on it if need be. these rods and cotton swabs can be bought at any sports shop or gun dealers on the high street. I also clean my .308 in exactly the same way but with a .30 cal rod & 4'' x 2'' swabs hope this helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
