LOL, me too. HE must have one, or two, or three or more you recon, lol. I'd like to spend an afternoon browsing his gun safe.

I too use a Dewey 20 cal rod with the aluminum Vudoo guide. I’ll be switching to the delrin version once Vudoo gets those in-stock.

Do you use a a .22 cal brush or do you use the .20 cal brush

 

[claybrich]

I use a .22 cal Boretech nylon brush. The .20 cal Dewey rod requires an adapter, 5-40 to 8-32 threads.

Maybe I am missing something or misunderstanding. If you use the boreguide, you shouldn’t have to remove the ejector to keep it from touching or scraping the cleaning rod. Or am I wrong?

plenty of these things are cut so the rod clearance is a bit big. Any flex in the rod will scrape on the ejector.
if you are using a one piece guide without a tight fitting rod, you are flirting with a barrel damaging setup. If you can insert a jag with a patch in from behind, again, too much clearance for a match level, soft, SS barrel.

Does the bore guide not go all the way to the chamber?

lots of them do although you might want to cut them back 1” or so. If that’s done, you can watch, and make sure the rod stays centered going down the bbl without rubbing on the beginning of the rifling.
one of the biggest advantages of a 2pc system is that it keeps the rod centered much better, it takes little flex over time to ruin a barrel.
