Do you use the SA cleaning kit?

[Slowbalt]

Hey all,
I was wondering if you guys use the PE-90 factory cleaning kit, or use something else. Thing is I am wondering if it has the quality to clean my baby or if an other one would be needed to not break anything. I heard bad things about 3 pieces aluminium rods, the swiss ones are most likely much better but still... Let's hear ya!!!

...use of PE-90 cleaning kit...

...no I don't use it because the cleaning rod is not coated with any protective materials.....

Nope,

I use a .17 caliber round with .17 caliber nylon brush. Wrap patch around it and use Copper melt. I do follow with a .22 one piece round, jag and patch.

Anymore?

I've always used a multi piece rod and have never damaged any of my rifles. its called care. Exercise some and pay attention. If you damage your barrel with an aluminum rod either A. your barrel is crap or B. you're applying too much force and ignorance. Avoid cleaning from the muzzle, and go slow.
