A quality flashlight. I like my MagLite LED pro.
Especially for rifles that don't have ( easily) removable breech plugs, they are life savers. They will show you how good, or bad your cleaning was and are useful for the post cleaning checks a couple days later.
Although you should use the rammer for checking for a loaded barrel, a flashlight is good for that too.
So include a flashlight in your kit. For REALLY checking out a bore, they are far superior to a drop in bore light.
