Hoppes Clng Patch 16-12ga 25/bag

Hoppes Clng Patch 16-12ga 25/bag cleaning patches are purpose-designed cotton swabs for bore maintenance on shotguns and rifles in the 12-gauge and .16-caliber range. These patches are the standard consumable for removing fouling, moisture, and residue from rifled and smooth barrels during routine field and range cleaning protocols.

The 16-12ga sizing indicates these patches are cut to dimensions optimized for the bore diameter of 12-gauge shotgun barrels and .16-caliber rifles, ensuring proper fit on a jag or loop tool without bunching or falling through the bore. The 25-patch per bag configuration is typical for regular maintenance cycles and fits standard cleaning kits. Hoppes is a long-established brand in firearms maintenance chemistry and tools, and its cleaning patches are compatible with all bore solvents and oils in the Hoppes line as well as generic alternatives.

These patches are suited for shooters who conduct routine barrel cleaning after range sessions, hunters who maintain firearms between seasons, and armorer-level technicians managing multiple firearms. Cotton construction allows solvent absorption while remaining lint-free enough to avoid fouling the bore during removal. A single 25-count bag supplies enough patches for multiple complete cleaning cycles on one firearm or lighter maintenance on several.

Bore patches are a consumable item and are typically replaced with each cleaning session. Hoppes patches are among the most widely available cleaning patch options for common gauges and calibers, making them practical for bulk purchasing and field replacement during extended shooting periods.
