A properly patched round ball requires the use of a bullet starter. The purpose of this implement is to start a tight fitting ball into the muzzle and to drive it far enough down the barrel so that it can be handled with the ramrod. The Deluxe is a hardwood starter that is similar to the standard except that it offers the added feature of what is called a palm saver. The T-Handle features a hardwood handle with a 2-piece solid brass rod, coupled with standard 10x32 threads. By removing the seating end of the brass rod, and screwing the T-Handle onto a standard ramrod, it will extend the length of your ram rod foreasier seating of projectiles.
