VFG Cleaning Pellets.

The idea of these pellets is that every time you go for a shoot, be it plinking targets in the garden or an all-day hunting session you put one of these little white pellets in the breach of your rifle and fire it, simple as that, on its way it picks up any lead particals or dirt and takes them out the end with it.


For a full clean you need to soak two of them in gun oil and put them through the barrel the same way as before. Then keep firing the pellets through until they come out white clean and oil free. If you do not own a pellet trap do not use these you will not find them to no how clean they are coming out.


I was very impressed with the idea of the VFG cleaning pellets and they come in a handy little box to that fits neatly inside the pocket on my rifle slip.


Upon using the pellets how ever i was far less than impressed, I felt they were not intended to be used with my rifle, although it is not stated in the instruction not to use these with a break barrel springer, but when firing it sounded very similar if not the same as dry firing a rifle ( something which can be very damaging to the internal parts of the rifle. I do not intend to damage my pride and joy so I have not used them since.


On the other hand though i feel it is a very clever idea, one that with development could revolutionize gun cleaning. I imagine these would work wonders for cleaning pre charged pneumatic rifles.


I'm going to give item a one out five and would really like the chance to review this item again if it gets developed further.
