Hoppe's .40 Caliber BoreSnake
The Hoppe's 24003 BoreSnake is a single-pass bore cleaner built for .40 caliber pistols. It combines a bronze brush and an expanded cleaning surface to remove fouling in one pull. Weighing only 0.125 lb, it adds negligible mass to a range bag. Shooters who value speed over disassembly will appreciate the streamlined routine.
Integrates with cleaning kits and lubricants
The BoreSnake works alongside Hoppe's No. 9 or Elite oils; a few drops on the front end add lubrication during the pass. It requires no rods, jags or separate patches, freeing bench space and reducing the number of loose components. The self-contained design means there are no extra brushes to swap or lose in the field.
160x patch area handles heavy carbon
The cleaning zone is 160 times larger than a standard patch, so it absorbs heavy carbon and copper deposits before they redeposit. One pass clears most fouling, but extremely neglected barrels may need multiple pulls. It is not suited for rifles or calibers other than .40, so owners of other bore sizes need a dedicated tool.

Questions about this item
How many passes does the BoreSnake need before the bronze brush stops loosening fouling?

Does the cleaning area get hot or emit fumes during extended cleaning sessions?
The fabric and bronze brush operate mechanically without generating heat or fumes, even with repeated daily use.
Which lubricants are required for the BoreSnake to function on a .40 caliber pistol?
A few drops of Hoppe's No. 9 Lubricating Oil or Hoppe's Elite are recommended after the cleaning pass.
