Re: Ruger 10/22 cleaning question
Thanks all for your help. Just one thing...that dang barrel on this 22 is so tiny I can barely run the cleaning rod through. I am being careful so as not to damage inside. But, it is really tight.

Is it OK to use a rigid cleaning rod on a new 10/22? And, is it OK to enter from the muzzle end? Please pardon my considerable ignorance.
