I need a bore guide for my .17 HMR.

[Jacks Grampa]

Love the round but they sure get dirty quick and I don't like hitting the chamber and shoulder with the cleaning jag. What thoughts folks?

On the same subject(?). What type of cleaning rod are you using?

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Best to give them a call as email response is very slow and patchy... Ph# on their site.
I can also recommend Bore Tech cleaning rods, available in mutiple sizes to suit bore diameter and various lengths to suit being able to get the jag through the barrel and not have the handle ride over the butt stock.

I made a .17 cal. bore guide using an old carbon arrow shaft and bushings to
center it, works great. A guy in PA use to make brass 1 piece 17 cal cleaning rods
and I picked up several for $20 each, with swivel heads.

Check with PMA tool they will do custom size for a very reasonable price.

Pro shot makes a good 17 cal cleaning rod, I have a Bore Tech guide (IIRC) for the Savage 93R17. I also have a aluminum bore guide by Proper RVB Precision but don't know if still offered.

Otis offered a pull thru type (twisted steel cable) and then there is the "patch worm" brand as well of pull thru's if that's your method.
