Kind of curious....strength wise...does one have an advantage over the other....assuming the theads are in good shape and the attachments fit snug against the rod? Why I am asking is...I'm thinking of modifying the ram rod that came with one of my rifles to accept jags, bullet pullers, etc. The thing is...the rod (steel) is only 1/4 inch in diameter...that means, from what I am seeing on various web sites that sell things like that, for that size diameter rod...seems only 8/32 screws are available...that is fine..if...the end result is something that will hold up. Incidentally...the caliber of the rifle I am talking about is a .58.
Thanking all who reply,
