Try this for ramrod.

I use what is called the nearly indestructible rod.
Its a piece of all tread wrapped in hickory.
Even has both size threads for accruements.

When the gran boy was 10 he found out in made darn good switch.

Hey Rifleman, I ordered a stainless range rod and an extra rod for my Traditions Woodsman from T.O.W. The range rod is great. They advertised the spare as Delrin which I thought might be better than the functional, but noodle-like rod that came with the rifle. It is exactly the same rod w the exception being that the brass ends are not pinned on the Track rod. They both have print on them that says; "Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Material Acetron G" followed by some coding etc. [Just like the original Hawken bros rods, I'm sure.] My son-in-law's old T.C. Hawken has what I think is a Delrin rod w a bit of a wood grain look and it seems way stiffer and much more like the Delrin I know from knife handles. This stuff is chocolate brown, kinda sorta ploody [as in pleather] and really whippy. It was $20 so I guess I will pin it and have a sameole spare for hunting. Haven't broke the original but... This isn't "Delrin", is it ? Sorry if this is a hijack. Curiosity got the better of me. SW

I have one too like that and says Mitsubishi on it. It’s like a spaghetti noodle that’s been cooked. Worthless. I wish I could remember where I got mine for my TC Cherokee.
