Hoppes 1260 Tornado Brush 12 Gauge Stainless Steel Bore Brush

The Hoppes Tornado Brush is a 12 gauge shotgun bore brush built around Hoppes' signature spiral-wound stainless steel design. Long trusted by gunsmiths as "The Gunsmith's Brush," the Tornado uses continuous stainless loops instead of loose bristles, eliminating bristle ends that can break off and scratch the bore during cleaning.

Sized for 12 gauge shotgun bores at 3.13" long with a bore-hugging 0.729" diameter, this brush threads onto any standard cleaning rod with a 5/16x27 thread. The continuous spiral pattern delivers consistent, aggressive scrubbing through the bore, making quick work of caked powder fouling, lead deposits, and plastic wad residue.

For best results, apply a quality bore solvent, attach the brush to your cleaning rod, and push the brush through the bore in a single direction - never reverse inside the bore - followed by clean patches until they come out white. The stainless steel construction makes the Hoppes 1260 a reusable, long-lasting addition to any shotgun cleaning kit.
