Elevate Your Rifle Maintenance: The Allen Bore-Nado Rifle Cleaning Tool .35 Caliber

For dedicated rifle owners, hunters, and sport shooting enthusiasts, maintaining the pristine condition and pinpoint accuracy of your firearm is not merely a chore – it’s a commitment to performance and longevity. The critical challenge often lies in achieving a thorough bore cleaning quickly and efficiently, without sacrificing effectiveness. Carbon fouling, copper deposits, and lead residue can rapidly accumulate, diminishing your rifle's precision and potentially leading to component wear. Are you looking for a revolutionary way to keep your .35 caliber rifle in peak condition? Do you often wonder how to make rifle cleaning less tedious and more effective? The Allen 70724 Bore-Nado Rifle Cleaning Tool .35 Caliber is engineered precisely to address these common concerns, offering a streamlined, pull-through solution that redefines firearm care.

What is the Allen Bore-Nado Rifle Cleaning Tool?

The Allen Bore-Nado is an innovative, all-in-one rifle bore cleaning system designed for rapid and comprehensive cleaning. Unlike traditional cleaning rods and patches that require multiple passes and components, the Bore-Nado integrates both a bronze brush and a cleaning swab into a single, pull-through design. This ingenious dual-action mechanism allows you to scrub away stubborn fouling and simultaneously wipe the bore clean with just one pass. Specifically designed for .35 caliber firearms, including popular cartridges like .357 Magnum, .35 Remington, .35 Whelan, and .350 Legend, this tool ensures a perfect fit for optimal cleaning performance across a range of rifles and even some handguns. Its robust construction and intelligent design make it an indispensable part of any shooter's cleaning kit, whether at home, at the range, or in the field.

Why Choose the Allen Bore-Nado for Your .35 Caliber Rifle?

Many shooters ask, "What's the most efficient way to clean my rifle bore?" or "How can I maintain my rifle's accuracy with less effort?" The Allen Bore-Nado provides compelling answers:

• Unmatched Efficiency: The true genius of the Bore-Nado lies in its dual-action capability. As you pull the tool through the bore, the integrated bronze brush aggressively scrubs away carbon, lead, and copper fouling, while the soft swab section follows immediately behind, absorbing loosened residue and solvents. This means a single, smooth pass can often achieve the cleanliness that would typically require multiple passes with a rod, brush, and separate patches. This significant time saving is invaluable, especially after a long day at the range or in the field.
• Superior Cleaning Power: The bronze brush component is specifically sized and engineered to maximize contact with the rifling, ensuring every groove is thoroughly scrubbed. This isn't just a superficial wipe; it's a deep clean that dislodges even stubborn, baked-on fouling.
• Preserves Accuracy: Regular and effective cleaning is paramount for maintaining a rifle's intrinsic accuracy. By consistently removing bore-fouling materials, the Bore-Nado helps prevent shot-to-shot deviation caused by inconsistent bullet seating and gas pressure. A clean bore ensures your projectiles travel true, shot after shot, season after season.
• Enhanced Firearm Longevity: Accumulation of fouling, especially corrosive primers and carbon, can lead to pitting, rust, and premature wear in your rifle's bore. The Bore-Nado's thorough cleaning action helps protect your barrel from these damaging effects, extending the functional life and resale value of your investment.
• Portability and Convenience: Unlike bulky cleaning rods and an assortment of jags and patches, the Bore-Nado is compact and lightweight. It easily coils up for storage in a range bag, backpack, or even a small pocket. This makes it ideal for quick field cleanings, ensuring your rifle performs reliably even during multi-day excursions or unexpected weather conditions.
• User-Friendly Design: The pull-through design eliminates the risk of muzzle or crown damage that can sometimes occur with traditional rods inserted from the muzzle end. It's simple to use, even for novice shooters, requiring no complex assembly or specialized knowledge. Just attach it to a pull cord or the included pull string and guide it through.
• Durable Construction: Built with quality materials, the Allen Bore-Nado is designed to withstand repeated use. The robust cord and sturdy brush maintain their integrity, providing reliable cleaning performance over time.

Unpacking the .35 Caliber Specifics: Versatility for Your Firearms

When considering the Allen 70724 Bore-Nado, understanding its .35 caliber designation is key. This tool is precisely engineered for firearms chambered in calibers that fall into the .35 (0.355 inch to 0.358 inch) diameter range. This encompasses a broad spectrum of popular and potent rifle cartridges, ensuring wide applicability for many shooters.

Common rifle calibers that this Bore-Nado is perfectly suited for include:

• .357 Magnum: While often associated with revolvers, the .357 Magnum is also a popular choice for lever-action rifles and pistol-caliber carbines. The Bore-Nado ensures these firearms maintain their tight tolerances for optimal performance.
• .35 Remington: A classic medium-power hunting cartridge, the .35 Remington is favored for its effectiveness on deer and black bear at moderate ranges. Regular cleaning with the Bore-Nado will preserve the accuracy of these cherished firearms.
• .35 Whelan: A powerful wildcat cartridge based on the .30-06 Springfield case, the .35 Whelan offers significant stopping power for larger game. Maintaining its bore is crucial for consistent performance in demanding hunting scenarios.
• .350 Legend: A relatively newer straight-walled cartridge designed for hunting in states with specific regulations, the .350 Legend has gained immense popularity for AR-platform rifles and bolt-action firearms. The Bore-Nado is an essential tool for keeping these modern sporting rifles in top shape.
• Other .35 Caliber Variants: This tool may also be suitable for other niche or less common .35 caliber cartridges, always ensuring it matches the bore diameter for effective cleaning without damage.

The precision engineering for this specific caliber ensures that the bronze brush effectively engages the rifling, providing maximum scrubbing action without being overly tight or too loose, which could lead to ineffective cleaning or potential wear.

Real-World Scenarios: How the Bore-Nado Answers Your Cleaning Needs

Consider these common questions and scenarios where the Allen Bore-Nado shines:

"How often should I clean my rifle?"
While opinions vary, a general rule of thumb is to clean your rifle after every significant shooting session, especially if using corrosive ammunition or after firing a high round count. The Bore-Nado makes this routine quick and painless, encouraging more frequent cleaning without dread.

"What's the quickest way to clean a rifle bore at the range?"
After a day of shooting, before packing up, a quick pull-through with the Bore-Nado and a little solvent can prevent fouling from hardening and becoming more difficult to remove later. Its compact size makes it perfect for a range bag.

"Can this tool really prevent accuracy degradation?"
Absolutely. Carbon, lead, and copper deposits build up in the bore, creating an inconsistent surface that disrupts the bullet's flight. By consistently removing these culprits, the Bore-Nado helps maintain the smooth, consistent bore required for optimal accuracy.

"Is it portable enough for field use during a hunting trip?"
Yes! Imagine you're on a multi-day hunting trip, and your rifle gets wet or exposed to dirt. A quick field strip and a pull-through with the Bore-Nado can prevent minor issues from becoming major problems, ensuring your rifle is ready when that trophy animal appears.

"My traditional cleaning rod seems to be scratching my muzzle crown. Is there an alternative?"
This is a critical concern. Muzzle crown damage can severely impact accuracy. The Bore-Nado's pull-through design eliminates this risk entirely, as the tool is pulled out of the muzzle, never pushed into it.

Beyond the Basics: Mastering Your Rifle Maintenance with the Bore-Nado

Integrating the Allen Bore-Nado into your regular firearm maintenance routine goes beyond mere convenience; it's a strategic move for preserving your investment. While the Bore-Nado excels at quick and thorough bore cleaning, remember that comprehensive firearm maintenance often involves other steps such as cleaning the action, bolt, and lubricating moving parts. However, the bore is often the most critical component for accuracy, and the Bore-Nado simplifies this vital step like no other.

For maximum effectiveness, consider pairing your Bore-Nado with a quality bore solvent and a light gun oil. Apply a small amount of solvent to the brush section of the Bore-Nado before pulling it through. This allows the solvent to break down fouling, which the brush then scrubs, and the swab section removes. A final pass with a very lightly oiled Bore-Nado can leave a protective layer, especially important for long-term storage or in humid environments.

How to Use Your Allen Bore-Nado: A Simple Guide

Using the Allen 70724 Bore-Nado is incredibly straightforward, making it accessible for every rifle owner, regardless of experience level.

1. Ensure Safety: Always begin by ensuring your firearm is unloaded. Remove the magazine, clear the chamber, and visually and physically inspect the bore to confirm it is empty.
2. Access the Breech: Open the action of your rifle. This is typically done by removing the bolt from a bolt-action rifle, opening the receiver on a lever-action, or disassembling the upper receiver on an AR-platform rifle. The goal is to gain clear access to the chamber end of the barrel.
3. Attach a Weighted Cord (if not pre-attached): Most Bore-Nados come with a pre-attached cord with a weighted end. If yours requires assembly, attach a sturdy pull cord to the loop at the end opposite the brush. Drop the weighted end of the cord through the chamber opening and down the barrel.
4. Pull Through the Bore: Guide the weighted cord out of the muzzle. Once the weight is clear, grasp it and begin to gently pull the Bore-Nado through the bore. Ensure the brush and swab sections enter the chamber smoothly.
5. Steady Pull: Maintain a steady, firm pull. As the Bore-Nado passes through, the bronze brush will scrub, and the integrated swab will clean and wipe. Avoid jerky movements.
6. Remove and Repeat (if necessary): Once the entire Bore-Nado has exited the muzzle, carefully detach it from the pull cord. For exceptionally dirty bores, you might choose to apply more solvent and repeat the process. However, for routine cleaning, one pass is often sufficient.
7. Inspect and Protect: After cleaning, inspect the bore for cleanliness using a bore light. If satisfied, you may follow with a lightly oiled patch or a final pass with a very lightly oiled Bore-Nado to provide a protective layer against corrosion.

Caring for Your Bore-Nado: Extending the Life of Your Cleaning Tool

While built for durability, a little care will ensure your Allen Bore-Nado lasts for many cleaning sessions:

• Rinse After Use: If you've used a strong solvent, it's a good practice to rinse the Bore-Nado with water or a mild cleaning solution to remove residual chemicals and fouling.
• Allow to Air Dry: Hang or lay out the Bore-Nado to air dry completely before storing it. This prevents mildew and ensures the materials remain in good condition.
• Inspect Regularly: Periodically check the bronze brush for excessive wear or damage. While designed to be durable, brushes do wear out over time. If the bristles are heavily bent or missing, it might be time for a replacement.
• Store Properly: Coil it neatly and store it in a dry place, away from direct sunlight or extreme temperatures.
