Why do you need a guide when you're cleaning from the breech?


Easier to hit the hole when it is out there where you can see it. I'm tired of missing
the chamber and catching the extractor cuts, or having the patch get pulled off by the
ejector.

In my teens I could thread a moderately fine needle a good 18+ inches from
my eyes. Today, I'd need my Optivisor...


I don't try to thread needles without magnification. And I'm thinking about
backing away from the TV and using binoculars. g
