I second the coated rods , I use Dewey rods for my rifles . You can also use a pull through cleaning system . I have one for an air rifle that is a small diameter nylon string with a loop on one end and a plastic tube around it to provide stiffness so you can push it down the barrel from the muzzle end , simply push it through and place a patch in the loop and pull back out . Good luck , Mike...
