Frequently Asked Questions
What calibers are these patches designed to fit?
These Birchwood Casey patches are sized for .38 through .45 caliber bores, making them compatible with popular handgun cartridges including 9mm, .38 Special, .357 Magnum, .40 S&W, .45 ACP, and .45 Colt. They thread easily onto standard jag tips and loop-style holders used with most cleaning rod systems.
Can I use these patches with solvent, CLP, or gun oil?
Yes. The cross-weave cotton construction is highly absorbent and compatible with all common bore solvents, CLP (cleaner-lubricant-protectant), gun oils, and copper-removing solutions. Use a solvent-soaked patch first to loosen fouling, follow with dry patches to remove residue, and finish with a lightly oiled patch to protect the bore.
How many passes should I make per patch before switching to a fresh one?
For best results, use each patch for a single pass through the bore and then discard it. Reusing a soiled patch can redeposit carbon, copper, or lead fouling rather than removing it. With 500 patches in the pack, you have more than enough for thorough multi-pass cleaning sessions across many range trips.
