6.5 POINTED JAG

Description

The RAM 6.5 Pointed Jag (R 6045) is a calibre-specific cleaning tool designed for 6.5mm (6.5 caliber) rifles.

What It Is

This is a brass cleaning jag (pointer jag or spear-point jag) from the RAM lineup. The pointed tip keeps patches centred and securely gripped during cleaning.

Key Features

Calibre-specific: Precision-machined for 6.5mm barrels to ensure the perfect fit between patch and bore.

Pointed / barbed tip: Holds cleaning patches firmly to avoid bunching or detachment, while allowing smooth passage through the rifling.

High-quality brass construction: Durable, solvent-resistant, and barrel-safe (won’t scratch or damage the bore).

Threaded attachment: Standard threads compatible with most cleaning rods and handles.

Practical benefits: Provides consistent solvent or oil distribution and helps the tip reach all residues and debris along the full length of the barrel.

Why You Need It

6.5mm calibers (such as 6.5 Creedmoor, 6.5 Grendel, 6.5×55 Swedish, and others) have become very popular for long-range target shooting, precision rifle competitions, and hunting in South Africa. These cartridges deliver excellent ballistics, but like all rifles they accumulate fouling over time. Regular use of this jag keeps the bore clean, maintains accuracy, and prolongs barrel life.

How to Use It

Thread the jag onto a suitable 6.5mm cleaning rod.

Wrap or fold a cleaning patch over the pointed tip (it grips securely).

Apply solvent or oil as needed.

Run the patch through the barrel (typically breech to muzzle).

Repeat with fresh patches until they come out clean, then finish with a dry patch or light preservative.
