They work fine a time or two...but don't put a strain on 'em or you'll pull half of it back out. I use a friction type wire thingy on my rammers that are all wood and some that look like a corkscrew on my other rods.

If you want a "tornado" shaped worm (not the screw-in type, it just slips over the wood ramrod and is held by friction), I think I may have a few from my old sutler days.

G'day Mario,
Apologies for the thread necromancy, but your description of a friction locking worm is intriguing....
I don't suppose you have more details, pics or a link somewhere perchance? :pray:
And thanks also to pathfinder for the super helpful link! :)

I guess the only "worm" I have ever used was the screw type ball worm, and the two legged twisted wire worm for removing patches. Both required screwing into the ramrod.
I also have in a small collection of "worms", and one what must be a "home-made" worm with steel welded barbs, likely for a ..69cal, or there about, never used it because it all looks to be welded to a full 3/8" thread about 1/2" long...a really stout looking worm that one could likely use as a Frog Gig in an emergency.
I have held on to that ugly beast hoping someone would come along and tell me what it really is. :o
