Which Bore Brush for a .500 Linebaugh?
What do you .500 Linebaugh shooters use?

I've about run out of surplus US .50 Cal rifle brushes.

Is there anything else that works with the .510 bore of the Linebaugh vs the .500 S&W? Or do they take the same brush?

I'm ready to order something and need suggestions if anyone has one.

Looks like these will do. Anything better?

Look at Brownells website. They have one listed for .510 caliber

I have found .50 brushes in the muzzle loader section at Wall Mart.

I don`t use a brush.I use Wipe Out.Spray that in and let sit a couple hours.Lead and copper come out on a Patch run through with an appropriate size Jag.That stuff really works.
