If I have a cleaning rod for my 5.56 AR-15 that is 22 to 26...can I use that same rod in my .308 rifle?  Obviously the smaller bore rod will fit in a bigger bore rifle, but is there any downsides to using it?  Or should I just get the 27 to 45 cleaning rod for the .308?

it will work.

I use the 30 cal rod just because there is less flex in the rod. Carries over from me breaking cheap Al rods trying to stuff an oversized patch down a 30 cal bore.
