Btw, if you "park" your ramrod in the unfired barrel, while loading the fired barrel, it makes it "almost instinctive" to re-tamp the unfired one before withdrawing it.
(Also it keeps you from LOSING the ramrod or getting it wet/snowy/dirty by laying it down.)

just my OPINION, satx

That's what I do. I also cock both hammers, but I only ever hunt over dogs.
