Brass or nylon coated cleaning rod?

[Pitdogg2]

How do you start the cleaning rod from the breech with the frame in the way? I've been pistols only up to now so looking for any pointers available.

Simple! Bore snake.

I've heard criticism that "stuff" gets caught up in a bore snake and then repeatedly dragged through. I've never researched them as I never had need previously and hadn't thought of them now, yet. How do you make sure they are clean each time as opposed to a new patch with each pass?

It's a cable that is flexible not a rod,be using it for around 20yrs I believe. Have a happy and safe New Year.
