My GF has finally allowed me to keep guns in the house, and I went a little crazy this Christmas.

I bought a Mosin Nagant, Type 99, Carcano, 98k Mauser, and a BRITISH ENFIELD No.4 MK.2.

Several of these are still on the way to me. I never owned a rifle, much less a surplus rifle before last month. I am trying to figure out which bore brushes I should be using for cleaning these rifles.

The Mosin, I use a 30 cal brush
The Mauser I use an 8mm brush

I honestly don't know if the Carcano is 6.5 or 7.35, but all I have seen is a 7mm and an 8mm brush. If it is 6.5 I use a 7mm, and 7.35 uses an 8mm? Or do I have to get something weird?

The type 99 is 7.7, so again I assume you use an 8mm brush. Is that correct?

The Enfield is Britishicon 303 is also 7.7, so I assume again, the 8mm. Is that correct?

I guess I don't know how precise a bore brush needs to be to the bore of the rifle to get a good clean going on.

Any advise would be awesome.

BTW, the GF loves the cosmolineicon oven that I made to sweat the grease from the stocks. She particularly thinks that the smell is a nice addition to the house.
