Shotgun Cleaning Kits

TL;DR: Kits sized to the gauge, with the big bore brushes and mops a shotgun barrel needs. Most hunters need a 12 or 20 gauge kit. A multi-gauge kit covers a cabinet of shotguns in one case.

Shotgun Cleaning Kit FAQ

Should I pull the choke tube before cleaning?

Yes. Remove screw-in chokes, clean the threads in the barrel and on the tube, then put a light coat of oil or choke tube lube on the threads before reinstalling. A seized choke is a trip to the gunsmith.

Will a 12 gauge brush work in a 20 gauge?

No. A 12 gauge brush will not enter a 20 gauge bore, and a 20 gauge brush is too loose to scrub a 12. Buy by gauge, or pick a multi-gauge kit.
