ramrod worm
« on: July 08, 2023, 07:14:13 PM »
This is the same size as the rod and slides into the entry hole.

That's awesome. How much does it taper?
The #1 gun I would want to put one of these with is tricky with ramrod size. Each pipe from front to entry pipe is slightly smaller.

This is small enough to fit permanently on your ramrod. It is .03 smaller than the ramrod hole diameter and is always in the gun   I have collected several originals of this type.

I have two of Dan's reversible worms.  They are as good a quality as anyone has a right to expect.  Like little jewels.  Nicely done Dan.   God Bless,   Marc

Dan,

This looks like the perfect size to clean out the ignition chamber of a patent breech.  Am I off base or do you think that will work?

Thanks, Guy
