Otis Ripcord® – .17 Cal Rifle Bore Cleaner, 36" Length, Nomex®/Rubber, 5-40 Thread (FGRC317) Clean your .17 caliber rifle the fast, effective way—without breaking out a full bench kit. The Otis Ripcord® .17 Cal Rifle is a one-pass bore cleaner featuring a heat-resistant Nomex® outer braid wrapped around a rubberized, helix-shaped core that engages the rifling for a superior scrub in a single pull. Purpose-built at 36 inches to service standard and long .17-cal barrels, this model includes a 5-40 threaded end to integrate with compatible .17-cal accessories. It’s the quick, packable solution for range days, varmint hunts, or post-session wipe-downs when you need clean barrels and consistent accuracy—fast. Model/MPN: FGRC317 • UPC: 014895004524 Why shooters choose the Ripcord for .17 caliber True one-pass cleaning: The rigid, helical core maintains contact with the bore, delivering friction where it counts so you can clear fouling fast—often in one pull. Heat-ready Nomex® outer: Engineered to tolerate warm barrels, so you don’t have to wait for a full cool-down before running a quick clean. .17-caliber precision fit: Sized specifically for .172" bores used by .17 HMR, .17 WSM, .17 Hornet, .17 Remington, .17 Mach 2, and other .17-cal rifles. 5-40 threaded interface: Use the 5-40 thread to attach compatible .17-cal pull handles or other micro-caliber accessories as your routine demands. 36" overall length: Optimized to reach muzzle crowns on long rifle barrels while allowing comfortable, breech-to-muzzle pulls. Packable, field-ready: Rolls tight, stows in pockets, pouches, or stock compartments for on-the-go maintenance. Solvent-friendly materials: Nomex®/rubber construction stands up to typical bore cleaners and CLPs used in routine care. Key features at a glance Caliber: .17 (0.172") rifle bores Function: One-pass breech-to-muzzle bore cleaner Construction: Nomex® braided sleeve over a rubberized, helical core Threading: 5-40 (micro-caliber standard for .17 accessories) Length: 36 inches Use cases: Fast fouling removal at the range or in the field; routine post-shoot maintenance Model / MPN: FGRC317 UPC: 014895004524 How the Ripcord® improves your cleaning routine Engages the rifling: The internal helical profile helps the cleaner “bite” into lands and grooves, sweeping out carbon, powder residue, and light lead/copper fouling. Breech-to-muzzle motion: Follows best-practice cleaning direction to push debris out of the crown, not back into the action. Compatible workflow: Run the Ripcord dry for quick wipes or pair with your preferred bore cleaner/CLP for deeper sessions. Protects precision: A clean bore restores shot-to-shot consistency—critical for small-caliber varmint rigs and target rifles where tiny groups matter. Compatible platforms (examples) Rimfire: .17 HMR, .17 Mach 2 Centerfire: .17 Hornet, .17 Remington, .17 Fireball (where applicable) Always confirm chambering and bore size (.172") before use. Not intended for airgun barrels unless manufacturer-approved. Simple usage guide Unload & clear the firearm; verify chamber is empty. Apply a small amount of bore cleaner (optional) to the Ripcord’s leading section. Feed from breech and pull toward the muzzle in a smooth, continuous motion. Repeat as needed until patches or follow-up checks show minimal fouling. Wipe down the Ripcord after use; allow to dry before storage. Care & maintenance Hand-wash with mild soap and water if heavily soiled; air-dry completely. Avoid harsh chemicals not intended for firearms maintenance.
