The Dewey 17 Caliber 36'' 5-40F Coated Rod is a purpose-built cleaning rod for .17-caliber rifles, engineered to protect premium match barrels from the wear and scoring that generic steel rods can inflict. Precision shooters and handloaders know that bore damage compromises accuracy—and this rod's durable nylon coating resists scratching without the peeling problems common to vinyl alternatives. At 36 inches long, it gives you full reach through the barrel without awkward extensions, and the 5-40 female thread is sized specifically for .17 accessories.
The ball-bearing handle turns smoothly under your hand, reducing friction and making each pass through the bore effortless. You get an extra-long Dewey jag included—one of the best accessories in the cleaning kit—that accepts a patch either wrapped around the rod or slipped over the end, and threads directly onto the rod without adapter fumbling. The flexible patch-mounting approach is a practical touch that saves time when you're breaking in a new barrel or deep-cleaning after a range session.
We recommend pairing this rod with a bore guide at either the breech or muzzle to keep the rod centered and prevent rocking, which further protects rifling. If you're serious about barrel longevity and consistent group size, this is the kind of cleaning investment that pays dividends over hundreds of rounds.
