Someone mentioned an old t-shirt, which works great.  An old threadbare sheet works good too and you won't run out any time soon.

Try Hart rifles web site. They make really good rifle patches. I've used them for years. I live about 15 minutes from the shop.

Sounds like your pretty picky about your 30 cal. patches ... good luck ....
Yea I can be on many things, I am a Hoppe's fan and try to stay with them. That and like I said I was told never to use the synthetic stuff but do not recall why. I did end up ordering 1000 cotton Hoppe's patches from MidwayUSA.com

I try to keep my money local if I can, but without having a vehicle right now I am kinda limited to where I can go. I wish the guy in town knew more, it really does handicap the person that does not know a lot to begin with when the owner of the shop who should know more (That is part of being a shop owner on anything) seems to know less than I do. Nice enough guy though.

I have not heard of a threadbare sheet, what is it?

A bed sheet that is worn out to where you can almost see through it.

muzzle loader patches are easy to come by if they are too big I have cut them down with sissors to use in a rifle barrel

Thanks for the idea, I ended up buying a thousand of the correct sized cotton patches.
