Bore cleaning made effortless

Keeping the barrel clean is the single easiest way to protect the accuracy of your air rifle, and VFG felt cleaning pellets make it genuinely effortless. There is no rod, no pull-through and no solvent. You simply load a felt wad into the breech and fire it down the bore.

How they clean every groove

As the shot goes off, pressure behind the felt pellet compresses it and drives it out to the full diameter of the barrel. It grips the rifling and follows the twist, so it scrubs fouling, dust and old oil from every part of the bore on its way out. The result is a clean, polished barrel in a single trigger pull.

Quality German felt

These VFG wads are made in Germany from natural sheep’s wool combined with cellulose wool, produced purely by felting and fulling the fibres with no chemical binders added. That gives a consistent, absorbent wad that cleans reliably shot after shot.

Clean at the range or in the field

The handy pack of 100 slips into a pocket or pellet pouch, so you can run one through at the end of a session and put the gun away clean. For best results, follow up with a pointed lead pellet behind the felt to sweep out any stray fibres. Find more air rifle care and ammunition in our outdoor shooting range.

Frequently asked questions

How do felt cleaning pellets work?

You load one into the bore and fire it like a normal pellet. Barrel pressure squeezes the felt, which expands to the full bore diameter and follows the rifling, wiping out fouling and old lubricant as it goes.

Do I need a cleaning rod?

No. That is the appeal. There is no rod, pull-through or solvent needed, so you can clean the bore in seconds at the range or in the field.

How do I avoid leaving fibres behind?

VFG recommends seating a pointed lead pellet behind the felt wad and firing the two together, which clears any stray fibres from the bore.

Can I shoot these at targets?

No. These are cleaning wads for barrel care only, not shooting pellets for targets or pest control.

Are these age-restricted?

No. As bore-cleaning felt wads rather than lead ammunition, they are not sold as an age-restricted item.
