[QUOTE="Dr. Tad Hussein Winslow, post: 1215040, member: 7123"] They're not mutually exclusive. The bore snake is good for everyday quick-'clean' - just getting out the powder residue. But it cannot be a substitute for a true cleaning. In a rifle, every few hundred rounds, you have to get out the accumulation of lead and copper buildup in the lands, even if you can't see it, or your accuracy will suffer. With handguns, you don't have to do it nearly as often. Except for 'rifle-caliber' handguns, I guess. [/QUOTE]
