Top takeaways
The DEWEY Adjustable Rod Guides protect the rifle chamber during cleaning by replacing the bolt and sealing out bore solvent with a rubber O-ring.
It features an aluminum rod guide collar and a threaded brass adjustment pin for quick adaptation to any action length, compatible with most centerfire bolt action rifles.
The 10" Rod Guide is designed for hand clearance with short to medium scopes, while the 13" Rod Guide accommodates long varmint and target scopes, both requiring a cleaning rod longer than the barrel.
I have two of these guides, and they work in a variety of rifles and seal the chambers well. They do not necessarily keep the rod off the rifling if the rod bows, but a muzzle-style guide at the rear of the bore guide helps with that, similar to a Lucas. The main problem I have had is having an O-ring come off the guide in the chamber. I'm still trying to figure out how to fish that out, and am hoping the 45-caliber bore brush I plan to buy today will do the trick. Maybe lubing the o-rings prior to use would help.

Works Great 07/11/2013
Fits and works great. I use it with a Dewey Brass Rod and jags. Keeps the gunk out of the action while cleaning the bore.

Perfect for Rem700 SPS Tact 12/07/2013
Fits and works flawlessly in a Remington short action in 308win. Used with a Dewey rod and brushes/jags. I used this combo over and over for cleaning a rifle during it's long break in. Very fast/easy install, aids bore cleaning greatly. It keeps everything else clean while you soak and scrub the bore with solvents/oils.

DOESN'T FIT SAVAGE MOD. 25 IN .17 HORNET 02/12/2012
I was told by Brownells Rep. this would fit the Savage Mod. 25 in .17 Hornet. It does not. The 10" bore guide is to short and the tip is larger than the chamber. I will keep it though, since it works great in several other rifles. It is well made as is everything made by Dewey.
