Sme Bore Rope Cleaner - Knockout .22 Caliber

The SME Bore Rope Cleaner Knockout .22 Caliber is a purpose-built cleaning solution designed for shooters who demand efficiency and thorough bore maintenance without unnecessary complexity. Whether you're a precision rifle competitor, tactical trainer, or recreational marksman shooting .22 rimfire platforms, this bore rope delivers fast, effective cleaning that reduces downtime between shooting sessions. The compact design—weighing just 0.15 lbs and measuring 3.3 x 1.15 x 6 inches—makes it easy to store in range bags, gun cases, or maintenance kits.

This bore rope employs a proven two-pass cleaning system that maximizes bore contact and fouling removal with each stroke, delivering more cleaning performance per use than single-pass alternatives. The Knockout design integrates a weighted, segmented rope construction that follows the rifling path, dislodging copper, lead, and powder residue efficiently. Unlike traditional rod-and-patch methods, the bore rope eliminates risk of bore damage, requires no separate cleaning rods or adapters, and works quickly—getting you back to shooting faster while still achieving professional-grade cleanliness for optimal accuracy and firearm longevity.

Shooters of .22 caliber rifles, pistols, and dedicated rimfire platforms benefit most from this specialized cleaner, as .22 ammunition generates unique fouling patterns and requires gentler, precision bore maintenance. Field shooters, competition participants, and home gunsmiths who prioritize quick maintenance between strings will appreciate the ease of use and the reduction in repetitive handling. Simply pull the rope through the bore in both directions, and the two-pass system works to lift debris without requiring chemical solvents or extensive drying time, making it ideal for both range days and post-hunting cleaning protocols.
