Dewy.

I have and use both, each works perfectly. That being said . Between the two I do prefer the handle on the Boretech rods.

Of the two different rods which has the smaller diameter of the handle?
Thanks.

Bore Tech is really nice.
I've used Tipton also for years and no problems.
You can't go wrong with the high end rods.

The handles on the Dewey rods are short plastic. Where the Boretech are actually quite long and rubberized. Honestly I don’t really even notice it. I’d buy whichever you can get cheaper

 

[SGT. Slaughter]

It looks like the handle is just a little smaller in diameter that looks like it will give me a little more clearance for the stock. Thanks.

Buy one long enough and you don't have to worry about it rubbing the stock. I have a boretech that is plenty long enough.

When ordering a cleaning rod, make sure the rod is long enough to allow a brush to clear the end of the bore and there is enough length to include the bore guide in place.

Until the handle locks up and quits spinning and you can't replace just the handle.

I've had some of my bore tech rods for over 15 years with no issues. Dewey on the other hand every one has quit working.

I like Bore Tech rods.

I’m a big fan of pro shot micro polished stainless rods.

If I used anything else it would be bore tech.

PRO SHOT is my choice also, I have tried all the rest and Pro Shot is the best I've found.

I have owned 2 Dewey's for over 20 years, got a bore tech too. I had some concerns about the coating on the rod. I have seen some where the coating was torn off, with reasonable use I have never had a problem. Lately I bought a new 22 RF rod and was told that the coated rods were out of stock, but I could order a smooth stainless rod. I wish all of them were smooth stainless. That is how Ivy rods were built and there was no rod or bore guide system that even came close to an Ivy.

I like the Bore Tech rods. Two different Dewy rods, the handles have locked up on me. No issues with the Bore Tech rods. Also like the longer handle on the Bore Tech.

Montana Extreme..Just a fantastic rod..

If you can find an Ivy rod get it. I have eight of these rods and nothing I have used in the past 55 years were in the same league as Ivy!
