Cleaning gear is as important as the firearm itself. Whether you run a bolt gun or a compact rimfire at the range, consistent maintenance keeps performance predictable, reduces wear and tear, and prevents fouling from developing into functional issues. We approach equipment like operators: simple tools done right, carried and used without fuss.
DAC 17-22 CAL 7 PIECE CLEANING KIT is a focused, no-frills toolkit built specifically for .17 and .22 caliber rifles and pistols. The kit includes three solid brass rods (.17 cal. diameter), a .17 cal wire brush, a .17 cal mop, and a .22 cal wire brush, all housed in a durable clamshell case that doubles as storage when the kit is not in use.

Why a dedicated .17–.22 cleaning kit matters
.17 and .22 rimfire platforms have different fouling profiles than centerfire guns. Rimfire ammunition leaves a combination of copper, lead, and carbon residues in the bore and the chamber area, and smaller bores are more sensitive to debris and residue affecting accuracy. The DAC 17-22 CAL 7 PIECE CLEANING KIT is optimized for those small diameters — the solid brass rods sized at .17 cal. diameter give you the stiffness to push brushes and mops without the flex you get from generic rod sections, while the brass material avoids scratching delicate bores.
What’s inside the DAC 17-22 CAL 7 PIECE CLEANING KIT
We break down the kit the way we would inspect a rifle after a long range session:
Three solid brass rods (.17 cal. diameter)
These rod segments thread together to create the right length for your barrel. Brass offers a balance between rigidity and safety for the bore finish — it bends less than polymer but is softer than steel, reducing the risk of scoring. Because the rods are sized to .17 cal. diameter, they’re ideal for pushing brushes and mops in the tight bores of .17 and .22 rifles and pistols.
One .17 cal wire brush and one .17 cal mop
The wire brush is your first line of defense against baked-on carbon and fouling in the throat area. Use a few short passes to dislodge stubborn deposits, then follow with the .17 cal mop to apply solvent and pick up loosened fouling. The mop’s fibers reach the lands and grooves without aggressive abrasion, preserving accuracy while restoring bore condition.
One .22 cal wire brush
Having a .22 cal wire brush in the kit expands its utility across the most common rimfire calibers. The brush will fit slightly differently than the .17 tools, but it’s essential for addressing bore deposits in .22-specific barrels and for users who own both .17 and .22 platforms.
Practical applications and range-ready tips
We recommend carrying this kit to the line any time you plan to log more than a box of ammo. Small bores foul quickly: a fouled .22 barrel can produce measurable shifts in point-of-impact. The compact clamshell packaging makes it convenient to store in a range bag or glovebox while keeping components protected and organized.
Routine at the range
After shooting, push a dry patch through to remove loose debris. If there’s visible carbon, run the .17 cal wire brush with a solvent-soaked patch attached, then follow with the mop. The three brass rod segments let you dial in length so the brush and mop run true. For stubborn residues in the breech face or extractor area, a small pick and a toothbrush work well; the kit’s brushes handle the bore work.
At-home maintenance
For a deeper clean at home, break the barrel down according to the manufacturer’s instructions and use the kit’s brushes and mop with a quality rimfire solvent. The clamshell case keeps everything organized on your bench and protects the threads on the rods between uses. We appreciate that this kit is affordable and purpose-built — it’s not a toolbox-sized investment, but it gives you the right tools for the job.
Why Dac and the model designation matter
Dac makes specialized maintenance tools that stay simple and functional. The brand is known for producing range-ready cleaning kits that emphasize fit and compatibility for specific calibers. The model listed as Various reflects practical manufacturing choices: the components are standardized to suit a wide set of rimfire firearms rather than being over-branded. At $12.59, the kit is an economical addition to any firearm toolkit.

Step-by-step use (quick SOP)
1. Safety first
Clear the firearm and verify the chamber and magazine are empty. Always work in a well-ventilated area when using solvents.
2. Assemble rod to length
Thread the brass rods together until you have the proper length to reach the muzzle from the breech or vice versa, depending on whether you prefer to clean from the chamber end or muzzle end.
3. Brush, solvent, mop
Run the .17 cal wire brush with solvent through the bore several times, then follow with the mop to remove dissolved fouling. Finish with clean dry patches until they exit clean.
4. Store
Allow components to dry briefly and seat them back in the clamshell case. Store the kit with a desiccant in your range bag if you’ll be in high-humidity environments.
For shooters who run rimfires for small-game, training, or competitive practice, the DAC 17-22 CAL 7 PIECE CLEANING KIT is a compact, affordable, and targeted solution. It provides the right tools — three solid brass rods sized to .17 cal. diameter, a .17 cal wire brush and mop, and a .22 cal wire brush — all in a durable storage case for $12.59.
