    How often do you clean your snake?

    Your bore snake! How often do you clean your bore snake? Do you have a special method to clean it?

          Its best to put your snake in a plastic container. That way you won't have to clean it as often.

              Throw those dirty snakes out and buy a new one. I guess if you're a cheap azz like myself, you could let it soak in hot water with a little dishwashing soap. Rinse well and your GTG.

                would a latex container work?

                  Put it in a sock and toss int he machine. I wouldn't put it in dryer though.
                  I think i may have done this some years ago.

                      Does a dirty snake re-deposit the dirt you took out last time?

                        The front end of my two are a bit dark, but the back end is still clean so it drags out crud (if any).

                        I use the boresnakes when I did not shoot a lot of rounds.
                        Patches used after sometimes show a little darkness.

                        In before the boresnake haters.

                          Zip tie it together to keep it from getting all tangled and twisted, and throw it in a pair of old Carhartt back pocket

                            Every morning, and sometimes multiple times a day, depending on how much use it's gotten.
