The Dewey 36'' Small Caliber Rod is a precision cleaning tool built for shooters who maintain .17 and .20 caliber firearms. Whether you're caring for a match-grade rimfire, a compact centerfire handgun, or an air rifle, this stainless steel rod gives you the reach and durability needed for thorough bore cleaning without the corrosion risk of carbon steel. At 36 inches, it's long enough to handle rifles while remaining manageable for handgun work—a genuine do-it-all length for small-bore shooters.
Constructed from stainless steel, the rod resists rust and pitting even in damp shop conditions or after extended storage. The female 5-40 thread accepts standard Dewey and Outers brush attachments, so you're not locked into a proprietary ecosystem; you can build your cleaning kit to match your exact caliber lineup. The rod arrives with a brass jag tip, a softer material that won't mar bore surfaces—a thoughtful inclusion that reflects Dewey's reputation for precision gun care.
Small-caliber rifles and handguns often get overlooked in cleaning routines, partly because generic rods designed for .30+ bores feel clumsy and overkill. This rod is purpose-built for that gap. Whether you're a competitive rimfire shooter, a varmint hunter, or someone who runs airguns seriously, a dedicated small-caliber rod is worth the investment—it's faster, safer, and more effective than improvising with oversized gear.
