Ideally use it before you clean and then after.
There was an offset funnel in the armourers kit for the Enfields IIRCdave_303 wrote:Believe it may have been for the .303 Martinis but I could be wrong, actually have one, great piece of kit, use it on my Mauser K98 and Mosins when having used surplus ammo.TattooedGun wrote:Was gonna say, didn't SMLE's come issues with a funnel to pour a kettle full of water down the bore to clean em...?Maggot wrote: A colleague of mine was impressed but just cant bring himself to put water down the bore....good job he never shot black powder or old corrosive primers then.
When you push a patch on a loop (or worse on a jag) a lot of the product is squeezed out before it gets half way down the bore. The brush holds quite a bit of product and does not squeeze it out. A couple of passes I find has the stuff all over the barrel. Worth a try.TattooedGun wrote:I believe quite the opposite.

I did a friends .308 with it a few weeks back, which he swore was clean. Needless to say it was not.
I too was a little apprehensive about using water in the bore but now have no issues in doing so. However I was of the belief that water was required as a catalyst for the reaction? However I stand to be corrected on this.
I find a nylon brush coated in C2R is the easiest method and ensure complete coverage.
I have a Nylon brush, at what point would you use it?
After every outting, for me personally.nearly there wrote:How often do yous clean your rifles
With my fullbore rifles, usually after every outing, but always before the next outing, if you know what i mean! Don't bother cleaning my .22's barrel other than a few passes with a boresnake to get the big bits and moisture out.nearly there wrote:How often do yous clean your rifles
