AtkinsonRe: Cleaning Rod Guide??????? Help!!
Take an aluminum arrow shaft section about 10" or whatever in length, drill out the primer pocket of a fire formed case, stick the shaft in as far as it will go then glass it in place...You can cut a slot for oiling the patch in the shaft someplace...make one for each rifle you have....Works like a charm and save some bucks...

Glen71Could it have been "Bore Tech"?

br6ppcIt sounds like a Lucas rod guide. Go over to benchrest central
web page and ask some of those guys. I have one for my benchrest rifle and I don't know what calibers Mike makes them for. I know he makes them for .308/ 30/06 size cases.

JStordahlRoger: I think it may be a Lucas, also. Mike Lucas makes these and markets them through various gunshops.
www.sgyrifles in Roanoke, Texas is where I got mine. The phone number is (817) 430-0597.
These are made for the Dewey coated cleaning rods and are cartridge/action specific, and they are the best in my opinion. I did an article titled "The Big Five....Indispensable Tools For The Accuracy Aficionado" published in the October 2002 issue of Precision Shooting magazine. One of the big five featured was the Lucas bore guide.
