I was about to post the same thing but you beat me to it

Haha so was I, that’s what I use in my .577s, 20ga brushes & bits, even my cartridge belt is 20ga !

.577 is 24-25ga & some early .577s are so marked.
 
I bet a 20 gauge bore brush would work. 20 gauge is .615 diameter so only .03" difference from .585.
Yes I use a 20 gauge brush to clean my 600NE (.620) so should be fine for 577 (.585) . Also use a 28 gauge for cleaning 505G and 500NE . They work well .
 
I will also pipe in on 20ga brush and mop usage.

Nice Report! Im about to pull the trigger on booking the LDE with Patrick. I have been talking about it with him for about 3 yrs now. Romain hit me up the other day with an offer I can't refuse for 2027.

Andrew, I commented that your on 375 H&H for sale was the fair price.

Like I commented, my classic stainless has the original 24” barrel.

Did you buy yours with the barrel already cut down to 21” or did you do it (or a gunsmith)?

You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.
