ramrod hole size
« on: January 01, 2020, 12:31:12 PM »
Happy New Year all, I am planning on a 32 cal plank  build rifle and I will be using a 32 cal Douglas tube [ swap meet sale ]Would a 5/16 hole and groove be the way to go? Any comments would help out Thanks Steven.

I used 5/16 hole and groove for the 32s I have made.  5/16 rod lightly tapered to slide freely into the forestock.

That's what I would do too.
