Looking for 1 piece range rod.

[Blackpowderart]

I'm looking to purchase a 1 piece range rod for my sxs pedersoli. I've just got into skeet shooting at the clay range and using my ramrod so much is starting to hurt my hand after 100 shots. Ime looking for one with a good diameter, one piece and only being used for 12ga or 10ga. Needs to be around 30 to 36 inches usable length. I see some are very expensive but I found this one on rice website. Does anyone have any suggestions or any input on this one? I've never owned a range rod.

track of the wolf makes them to length and thread size . i had mine made to 36 inch and had them make me a 10 inch extension for the long stuff . its 5/16 s.s.

Make one. Very simple. ½ or ⅝” dowel, add a simple handle of your choice. Cit to length of you bore, and Viola.
Much better, and easier to handle at 30+ inches, than a 5/16” rod that’s 46” long.
Will cost less than the shipping for the Rice one.
Just sayin.

I have them in stock. Both brass and stainless steel. There is one of my long rods for sale in Shooting accessories ads

I make them any length unlike Track my handles are epoxyed and pinned on with a steel pin. That's why I use the handles with the metal collar

A 5/8” dowel bought at Ace hardware is 36” long and a handle of wood will be dandy for loading on the line. And you can have it today with no shipping.

Here’s selection to look at…

If you own at least a hand drill they are easy to make. Get a 3/8" steel rod at the hardware store and attach a 7/16" rod tip to one end. It's a slip fit. Epoxy and pin it or solder and pin. If you want a bore guide slide it on and then Epoxy and pin your choice of handle.

Rice makes good stuff so I'd guess their range rod is good.

Make it easy on yourself- As mentioned above, a 5/8 dowel eight or ten inches longer than the barrel, with loaded and empty witness marks, is perfect. I use this method at the range and in the duck blind.
