Ramrod for ORIGINAL 1863 Springfield/QUESTION?

Some skirmishers use brass rods, many use steel.

Not gonna get into a pecking contest over what some feel is better.

I’d highly recommend a STEEL ram rod.

Just be sure to wipe it down after each event, in short keep it clean, esp the head.

2horses,
I agree with everything the Col. has stated. I would also add the use of a Range Rod with a Brass Muzzle Guard to center the range rod in the bore. You can re-crown the muzzle too. It adds to accuracy.

2 Horses- When you get ready to play as a member, we do have an active unit in the Springfield area (Co. G, 114th Illinois) and we have been conducting a Western Region skirmish annually here for decades.
