Ramrod questions

[imstihlaguy]

I carry a homemade collapsible rod with a spinjag, in its pouch, in my small bag along with extra powder tubes, bullets, sabots, etc. I ,also, carry a spare collapsible rod, just in case.

Any chance you'd care to show how you made yours? I'm looking into doing the same thing

I was thinking about making one but I decided on getting the CVA Lifetime Range Rod. Its 3 pc 3/8" aluminum and reviews look good on it. My wife can make me a sheath for it no problem to go on my belt. I might even have one already from a detachable bipod I used to use on my western hunts. Besides, like many of you here, it's very rare that I need a second shot. Not bragging just fact. I can only think of 3 times in my 55+ years of hunting where I needed a second shot on a big game animal.
But having a ramrod for cleaning as well as loading IMO is necessary. Especially should you stumble and poke your muzzle into snow or mud. You got to clean that out.

I believe if I were to make one I would use paracord along side the bungie cord just in case the bungie cord broke. You ain't going to break that.

How? Pics if you can please. I'd like to put on on the Scout

I order sml barrels with ramrod ferrels. On a Scout you could have it drilled/tapped for a ferrel I would think.

I'm sorry lost track of time last night. It's made out of aluminum arrow shaft with inserts with paracord inside.

Should be able to find everything you need. May have to make a few modifications to make things work.

I carry mine on the right side of my bino harness.

I also have the same rod Encore has. Very well made and for loading only or for the follow-up shot.
