I am making BFD Bore Pigs/Gophers for my 40-65 and am trying to find the best material and technique for making the squeegee. What has worked best for you?

Re: Making Bore Pig/Gopher Squeegees For 40-65
See page 3 of the following link for my post (AzTBH) on what components I used for my 40-70SS bore pigs: The combination has been working fine. I especially like the pistol length bore brushes since they fully seat into the chamber and hence do not flex when first starting to push into the bore,
