[Old Jim]

I need a new wiping rod, so where is the best place to get one?

I got mine at Arizona Sharpshooters and tell Steve to drill and tap it.

Steve's delrin rods are the best for wiping. For a wiping/cleaning rod I prefer the Tipton carbon fiber rods, and if you can come up with one of the big heavy ones, they work great on 44 and 45 caliber rifles, but those are darn hard to find these days.

Jim I get mine here https://www.mscdirect.com/product/details/80166549 I like the black better then the white. The white get bent out of shape in time. You can get them in any diameter here. They also have the white.

Thats a pretty fancy jag on those rods!

I sent SR an e-mail asking about the rods. He answered saying the rod of my choice would be drilled and tapped and mailed out early next week, invoice included.

Now, that's service. Ya don't hear that from me very often!

The nice thing about his rods, the handle is threaded on to the rod so you can add a chamber guide if you want.

better finish what I start'd here .... got the wiping-rod from SR but don't see how the handle comes off. No big deal I guess. Jags screw right in ok.

Now back to the loading bench!
