The cheapest accessory that made the biggest difference

Mine will be a $15 bore snake. It sounds stupid, but being able to clean my rifle in two minutes instead of 20 minutes of rod and patches changed how often I maintain my guns. Lower barrier to maintenance means I actually do it regularly..

Mine was a cheap shot timer, suddenly practice had accountability and I couldn’t lie to myself about speed anymore.

It’s always the cheap upgrade that sticks, less hassle means you actually keep your gear running right consistently

 A bore snake lives in every single one of my range bags. A two-minute cleanup means I actually get it done, instead of putting it off until the bolt eventually just sticks.

Bore snakes are in every single one of my range bags these days. It's the difference between two minutes and twenty, which means I actually get around to cleaning things instead of putting it off until the bolt finally decides to stick.
