Kit components and practical benefits

The molded tool box keeps every component organized and protected. The 4-piece brass rod breaks down for safe storage and assembles to give you full-length control without scratching chrome-lined bores. Included shotgun brushes and swabs specifically sized for 12 and 20 gauge ensure you can address common shotgun platforms, while the .22 brush and slotted tips cover smallbore rifles and pistols. Brass brushes for .243, .270, and .30 caliber let hunters and long-range shooters maintain bore integrity for centerfire rifles where accuracy matters most.

Why the calibers included matter

.22 caliber maintenance supports rimfire trainers and plinkers where fouling accumulates quickly. The .243 and .270 brushes cover popular deer-hunting calibers used in bolt-actions and lever-actions; .30 caliber support covers a wide range of full-power cartridges. The 12 and 20 gauge shotgun tools allow you to clean hunting and defensive shotguns without improvisation.

Field use and durability

The brass rod resists corrosion and avoids scratching barrel crowns like steel rods can. Cotton patches (20 included) and the assortment of brushes let you perform a complete bore-to-action routine in the field or at home. Ruger’s reputation for firearm-grade accessories aligns with this kit’s practical layout and durable case — Model: Various means it’s designed to match many Ruger and non-Ruger platforms.

View product details and pricing — price is $42.99, a competitive value for a multi-caliber kit that replaces several single-use sets.

Who should carry this kit

This kit fits the toolbox of range regulars, hunters, and armory managers who need a compact, cross-platform solution. It’s especially useful for shooters who switch between rimfire practice, centerfire hunting rifles, and shotguns in the same season — the included brushes and slotted tips let you address each system without improvisation.
