Lil Debbie got a new ramrod

(1/1)

Darren Haverstick:


I'm taking Lil Debbie to Mexico this coming April to hunt Gould's turkeys with her. I finally had a chance to go to the range last week to do some pattern work and ended up breaking her dang ramrod! I was not surprised, since something ALWAYS goes wrong when I tote a gun to the range. So, anyway, I didn't want to be in the same bind on my trip so I finished up a new ramrod for her yesterday and then made an extra for "just in case". Now I need to get back to the range to finish getting her patterned.

As always, Darren, wonderful work.  We expect nothing less from you.  And you deliver.   :applaud :applaud
The only question I have is why use the undergun rod for range work?  I am a firm believer in brass rods, especially when shooting at the range.  As a matter of fact, I can hardly remember the last time I used my undergun rod for anything but a decoration on any of my muzzleloaders.  But, that's just me.

John, since I was patterning a smoothbore, I was already dragging everything to the range except the kitchen sink. My steel rod would have been just one more thing to carry in a hand that I didn't have free.
