Cleaning rods
I find myself in the market for some new cleaning rods, namely 17 and 20 cal.
These are for rifles so I would want something around 38" - 44", what do people recommend for these calibers and where is the best place to get them?.........Kiwi

My vote is for Pro Shot as well. I wouldn't steer you from Dewey, but I feel that the Pro Shot rods are burnished a bit smoother and the thinner, slightly smoother operating handles clear stocks better.

Look @ Tipton!!
Check out the Tipton carbon fiber rods. They make ones specific to 20cal as well as 17 cal. Very pleased with them.

I've got a pair of Dewey's that I've had for close to 20 years, and I could
Don't begin to guess how many trips down and back they have made, and the coating it still good. I did replace the handles, Dewey sold me the pair at a very reasonable price. I would not shy away from them either, I just like the stainless now days.

cleaning rods
If it were me, I'd buy an Ivy Cleaning Rod. http://www.ivyrods.com/CleaningRODS.htm I have one for my .284 Winchester. I have used it for almost a year now and no bends or bows. I can't say enough about them and great people to deal with.

Kiwi:
Go with Ivy rods, he builds really nice ones in stainless. I got one for the .17's, am tickled with it. Not cheap, but, you're not either so you'll be happy with 'em.
