If you run AR-15s or shoot 5.56x45mm NATO, you know that keeping your rifle clean keeps it running reliably. The Southern Bloomer 122 Cotton Cleaning Patches for .223 Rem/5.56x45mm NATO give you 1,000 tried-and-tested patches built specifically for that caliber. Southern Bloomer has been making cotton knit cleaning patches since 1978, and their gear shows up in military armouries, police departments, and serious gun cabinets because they work—no fuss, no mess, just effective maintenance.

These patches are made to be virtually lint-free and won't leave strings or threads behind as you push them through your bore. That matters: loose fibers can interfere with your gun's accuracy and leave debris that compromises your cleaning effort. When you're field-stripping your AR or doing a deep clean after a range day, you want patches that stay intact and actually remove fouling instead of adding to it.

A 1,000-count box is the working shooter's quantity. You'll use them. Whether you're zeroing a new rifle, running a training course, or just keeping your go-to gun in fighting shape, these patches won't run out fast, and you won't fret about cost when quality maintenance matters.
