.45 cal "Bore Buttons?"

[N.Y. Yankee]

Where can I find pre-made wool-felt wads that are true .45 rifle bore size? Those I have purchased are for pistol and rifle and they fit loosly in the rifle. I dont want to make my own.

I doubt you will find them.
Wads in a rifle generally are not needed, However some shooters find wads desirable. Try 100% cotton flannel. Cut a rectangle 5/8x1 1/4 inch. Lube then fold in half. Ram home and tamp. Then run your PRB down

Great idea! That, I can do, thanks!

most recommend one caliber oversize on the wads ie. 50 cal for a 45. ect., i think it is to better seal the grooves. there are many posts on this to fish for.
