ProShot takes pride in using exclusively American-made steel for its cleaning rods, ensuring premium quality and performance. Our steel begins perfectly straight through every step of the manufacturing process, guaranteeing durability and reliability. Unlike barrel steel, our rods are slightly less hard, ensuring safe use without damaging your firearm. ProShot's 1st Step Built-in Coating Process, featuring micro polishing, creates a rod surface with a mirror-like finish that provides superior protection during cleaning. This advanced process allows our rods to glide smoothly through the bore, minimizing friction. The 2nd Step Revolutionary Coating ensures maximum barrel protection, as the smooth and slick surface is both chemical and heat resistant. The double-coating technology resists fouling build-up and prevents residue from embedding on the rod, providing you with the only coated cleaning rod in the world to offer double coating for ultimate barrel safety. With ProShot cleaning rods, you get unmatched protection and performance, every time.
