Frequently Asked Questions Is the 3PS17 suitable for .22 LR firearms? This model is primarily for .17 and .204 calibers. For .22 LR, choose a .22 caliber cleaning rod, which has the appropriate stiffness and tips for the larger bore. Can the rod be used in a .17 HMR firearm? Yes, the rod is also designed for .17 caliber firearms, including the .17 HMR bore. Why must a small caliber rod be used with extra care? A fine rod may bend under strong lateral force or if a brush becomes stuck. Use an appropriate guide and do not force the rod. When is the Hoppe’s 3PS17 the right choice? The 3PS17 is the right choice for .17 or .204 firearms with a small bore, and in situations where the rod needs to fit into a compact maintenance kit. For frequent bench cleaning, a one-piece small caliber rod may be stiffer and more convenient. Recommendation We recommend using the 3PS17 rod only with brushes, jags, and patches of the correct diameter. Whenever possible, guide the rod from the chamber toward the muzzle and avoid sharp bending. Check the section connections before each use, as a small diameter rod is more sensitive to lateral pressure than thicker universal rods. Caliber-specific rod for small bores The Hoppe’s 3PS17 is a compact solution for cleaning .17 and .204 caliber rifles. The three-section aluminum construction is well-suited for both home maintenance and carrying in a gun case.
