HOW TO USE BORE-TIPS®

Use a Bore-tip to apply the solvent to the barrel. Then, after allowing the solvent time to work, brush the bore to break up any fouling. Next, use a clean Bore-tip to push the fouling out the bore. When the now dirty Boretip clears the bore, wet it with a little solvent and then squeeze it with an absorbent rag or paper towel, this will blot the dirt off. After blotting, the Bore-tip should be clean enough to continue using to remove the fouling until you are finished cleaning. When you are satisfied with the cleanliness of your barrel, use a clean Bore-tip to dry the bore. If you wish to lubricate, you can use another Bore-tip to apply lubricant. PLEASE NOTE: Always make sure the firearm is unloaded before cleaning. If you lubricate the barrel it must be dry swabbed before it is fired again. The bore should ALWAYS be clear and dry before firing.

HOW TO CLEAN BORE-TIPS®

For faster cleaning use mineral spirits. Apply mineral spirits to the Bore-tip and squeeze/blot into an absorbent rag or paper towel. When the Bore-tip is clean, let dry and reuse. Using soap and water, squeeze to blot out any excess solvent or dirt. Next, wash the Bore-tip with a grease cutting soap and warm water. Once clean, rinse then let dry completely.

  1. Set up your reloading bench where it (and stored components) will not be exposed to heat, sparks or flame.
  2. Establish a comfortable loading procedure and don't vary it.
  3. Keep your reloading bench, equipment and area clean and uncluttered. Label components and reloads for safe, easy identification. Never use powder from an unlabelled tin.
  4. Understand what you are doing and why it must be done in a specific way.
  5. Follow loading recommendations exactly. Don't substitute components for those listed in metallic data without reducing the load and working back up.
  6. Never substitute smokeless powder for black powder or Pyrodex because smokeless powder is much more powerful than black powder. Never mix two powders together.
  7. Wear safety glasses.
  8. Stay alert when reloading. Don't reload when distracted, disoriented or tired.
  9. Don't smoke, drink alcohol or take drugs while reloading or while in your reloading area.
