The New CVA Optima V2 Ramrod has 8/32 Female Threads on Only One End & the Supplied Extended Cleaning Jag is 10/32 Male??? If you call BPI Outdoors, will they send you the Adapter? Also, the Loading Jag on the Only Threaded End was put on with Red Loctite & required heating, a padded Vise & Channelocks to remove.

They weren't thinking. And that's the issue with CVA's ramrod situation for the last few years. CVA's rods were solid aluminum for years, but they've shifted gears to tubular weak-tit almost plastic for the rods now with one end an option for attachments.

I found some aftermarket rods that came in a clear tube with T/C labeling that are solid aluminum and 10/32 threaded at both ends. I bought one for each of my muzzies to use as each gun's cleaning/range rod. No more swapping jags and brushes. The rod tube for a particular gun goes right in the gun case when I head to the range with no mess or fuss.
