I have a Tipton carbon 17cal rod I use for 22lr and 17hmr, I have never felt that it was flimsy at all, but I likely would have gone for the 20cal rod had I not already owned a 17hmr.
I use the 17cal jag for both 22lr and 17hmr and use a 20cal brush for the 22.
You can get a 22cal brush with the smaller 5-40 thread, but thus far I have got by with the 20cal.
Tried an Ivy .17 and it flexes pretty easy. Got another Ivy in .20 and never looked back
I use a patch worm on my .22’s. It’s basically a weed eater string with a little cylinder on the end to keep patches tight against the bore. I’ve never had the need to use a brush on a .22LR bore..
