Given the price of the average firearm I'd buy the best I could....though with so much "Made in China" getting quality these days is not so easy..

Nowt wrong with reasonably priced boresnakes from China..
It's a pity branded stuff is overpriced and overrated.
I personally don't judge a product because one in a million breaks.

Initial saving of item vs potential cost for a gunsmith to remove snapped & stuck bore snake from barrel.

Really, a gunsmith to remove an obstruction from a barrel...
Do most people not own actual cleaning rods...?

I barely use my 20g. So I will pick up a cheapy one for that and see how I get on with it. :)

"potential" cost of a gunsmith, in case unable to remove yourself. I am taking about a rifle barrel though, I expect with a shotgun you could just reach in and pull it out yourself.

Which one...?
There's some nice engraving on one of them that might be likened to a tattoo...
