What do you guys use on your ramrod for a bullet aligner/seater?
Nothing in my tackle box fits.

There are several that will work...

I use a TC Super Jag on my gun rods and a Spin Jag on the Range rods...

I normally build the Super Jag into the gun rod, but cutting the the rod to length drilling and tapping it if necessary to install the jag to be flush with the muzzle.

Here is an example..



In this one you can see the cup for the bullets



For the Spin Jag chech here....

www.spinjag.com

I use the Spin Jag Original and really do prefer it over all the other inventions he has made. The Original is a multi use clean and loading
Keep shooting muzzleloaders - They are a blast!!

That explains it. I use the power rod and slide the jag end into the stock. That type of jag wouldn't work for me.
I need an aligner that has a point that will fit in the hollow point and push on the bottom of the hollow.

I have all sorts of them - which caliber do you need?  Whoops - Power Rod it is not quite that easy - because you are limited on the size that you would be able to push into the stock for storage.  I am sure the ones I have you would have to pull the rod then screw the tip in...

Send me a PM with your address I will send you a couple - I assume 50 cal?

No worries. I took an extended one like you have pictured, cut the head off, and then turned down the last 3/8 " to just fit in the hollow point. Worked great.
Wasn't that impressed with the bullets. They are hard to load and even shave a little plastic going in. Accuracy was so so. Plenty good to hunt, but not like a dead center.
My hunt starts the 6th so I won't deviate from the tried and true for it. Maybe play some more and try them for late season....
Thanks for offering the jags. You seem like good people.
