Hoppe's Bore Snake Viper

This one-pull pass through bore snake adds an extra cleaning brush for 50 percent more cleaning power over the original Bore Snake.
By J. Scott Rupp

The pull cord on the Viper is attached directly to the brushes for added strength; lubricants go on the orange portion. One size for .44 and .45 bore diameters, one for 9mm/.38. {$25. www.hoppes.com}
