Which boresnake is the correct size for a 7.62 AK 47?

 

[ArmyGuy45]

Any .308 will work.

Thanks, I just ordered me one.

.310-.315...308 will work, but its a tad small. Russian 7.62 is .310-.312

Rather have a tad bit smaller than a tad bit bigger:shock:

I have been using it for my 7.62 x 54. Seems to work fine for me.

It does, but then run a 310-312 through it and see what you pull out....

Do they make that? Do you have a link?

I have only seen it for .308/30-30, 30 cal, etc.

Maybe he's talking about the .32 cal/8mm

Here's the list from Hoppe's
The BoreSnake

I use the same one in my AK and mosin.

its the... .30 cal rifle (?) version. it seems a bit tight but not like the one for the .22. the .22 version I need to really pull to get it though. sometimes I pull it so hard I think I am gonna snap it off in there.

I use the .32 cal. It hasn't hurt anything.

Its the 8mm one... its on their website, you can also use an 8mm bore brush for 7.62.

But does the .4 mil matter on a bore brush? I woudnt think so but I have never tried it.

the lands are .309-312....how you gonna get in the grooves?? 8mm brushes. I have a 7.62 NATO cleaning kit and it does not 'clean' 7.7 ***, 303 Brit, or any 7.62 ComBloc (except some Finns) as well as a 32 cal brush/mop because it can't reach in the grooves.
