Keep the clean-up to a minimum when cleaning your guns by making a throw-away dirty patch receptacle from a discarded water or soda bottle. Drill or cut a hole in the cap just slightly larger than the muzzle of your rifle and slip the empty bottle over the muzzle. Patches get disposed of without having to handle them, and when you’re finished cleaning the rifle, throw away the bottle with the patches inside.
