I've been using rods, brushes and patches for 35 years.

I got a bore snake a few weeks ago, {yea, I know}.

Anyway, I love the snake. Like everyone said, pulls a bit hard
at first, but I think that's good.

I'm still learning how much CLP vs. oil, when and where.

But I love it and don't mind not having to chase after rods.

Just be careful to not snag it on the way through.
