9mm pistol brushes and jags will work fine in a 350.

What were you shooting that leaded the barrel? All the factory ammo I have seen is jacketed.

If you meant copper fouling, get some Boretech copper solvent and follow the instructions.

 

Ok thanks I didn't know the exact term

 

I avoid all metallic brushes as well as the harsh aggressive bore cleaners that use primarily ammonia. I use the Patch Out bore cleaner (and their accelerator if faster cleaning is needed). Simply run one patch through the bore to get the loose major stuff. Then wet the bore with a loose patch or nylon brush. Let it sit overnight (horizontal, but muzzle slightly down from level). The next day just run a wet patch through. Most likely will be the color of new blue jeans. That is the copper it pulled out. If it is heavily fouled, soak it more. The cleaner causes no damage to the bore, and is just as rust resistant as oil.
Brownells or Midway sell patch out as well as rods, jags, patches, brushes.
Best to use jags that are nickel plated, or the solvents will attack the brass jags as well.

350 uses same bore dimensions as .357/.38.... so any .357 jag and patch will work best. A 9mm jag will work but have a loose fit unless you use thick patches..

 

350 Legend actual bullet diameter is .355. Same as 9mm

 

The 350 has the same bore/groove dimensions as the .38/357 as does the 380/9mm so any jag labeled for use with these calibers are perfectly suitable for the 350L as they are the same regardless of measured bullet diameter differences..

 

How did this go for you? I’m having a hard time myself finding the right kit. What did you end up going with and did you like it? Tyvm

 

.357 jags and brushes are the correct diameter brushes, jags, mops & patches.

 

Ok I figured I’d have to put the pieces together I just like the cute little cleaner kit I got for my 22. I can’t find anything other than pistol kits so I’ll just get one and buy the barrel stick thingy I suppose

 

This is a universal type kit, but for $26, not a bad deal for all it comes with
Amazon.com : Allen Ruger Rifle & Handgun Cleaning Kit, Multi-caliber .40, .45 ACP, .357, 9mm, .30, .284, 7mm, .270, .25, .243 & .22 Caliber Rifle or Handgun : Sports & Outdoors

 

If you don't have a decent shop near you go online to Brownells, Midway USA, Natchez, or Midsouth Shooters and order a quality 1 piece rod, nylon brush and jag in 9 mm or .357. You may find what you need at Dunhams? Me personally, I would not use a multi piece rod for routine cleaning.

 

Dunham’s looked like it was in a riot and has since last year. The cleaning section looked like someone threw a grenade in there. 90% of the items were out.

One of the rods was 30$ on Amazon highly reviewed but I was like do I really need that? Is there a chance of damaging the barrel with the cheap one?

 

Don’t forget to get a bore guide.

Clean your rifle prior to shooting it the first time and follow break in procedure.

 

Just get a .35 caliber Bore Snake. That's what I use on mine.

Yep.

So many ideas ad suggestions on brushes, jags and patches. Some posts next to each other seem to contradict the other..

 

Yup! No two people's approach is the same. For example, I've been using multi-piece rods for 30 years. Zero issues. Love 'em because they break down short and the kits fit nicely into my cleaning tackle box.

After initial deep cleaning and barrel break-in, 90% of my cleaning is simply running a bore snake through the barrel in the field. My hunting shotguns (rifled) and rifles don't get shot enough during season to require a full cleaning after each trigger pull in the field. Proper bore cleaning gets done at the end of season.

Never used a bore guide either. I always clean my barrels in direction of bullet travel, so crown is never affected by jag & patch breaking through from inside. Unscrew it, pull rod back through breech, start over. Shotgun multi-piece rod is aluminum; rifle is coated steel. I shoot sub-MOA on every rifle, so crown can't be buggered up too badly! Crown's biggest enemy is getting dinged while carrying afield or handling the rifle while uncased.

 

35 caliber rifle brushes and jags are pretty common. I have them for 35 Remington and 350 Remington Magnum.
