That's a great tutorial, even though the pics no longer come up!

Where do you get the brass tube stock?

Thanks for the notice, I'll update the links later on. I get my stock at a really good stocked hardware store, THE best around the Boston area.

Can't find it anywhere in my area. Maybe an online specialty supplier.

9mm is .3543 of an inch. For my use on the range brass is fine but it will add about a half pound to your rifle and shift the balance point forward a couple of inches. I prefer wood for hunting purposes.

i broke my wodden ramrod after 10th load, made pure copper one. it is heavy, bends easy, aint red no more, black powder made it realy black. its 8mm should be 9mm, with some hammering it fits nice on a gun.

It doesn't add weight if you use tubular brass like I posted earlier. It is available at Ace Hardware stores in lots of sizes. If you have the hankering for a brass ramrod, go for it.
