Is there any opinions on brass vs aluminum range rods?
For a range rod and to tell you the truth I really do not like either one of those. I totally prefer a fiber rod with a brass muzzle protecter.All three of my range rods have spinning hnadles which are nice but because they are so long and I do not always use the handle I have installedspin-jags on them. The spin-jag helps protect the crown on the way in, makes seating a bullet easier, and allows you to hold the rod itself as you a pushing down, yet the jag and bullet are rotating with the lands and grooves in the barrel.




In the field all of my guns have a hollow aluminum rod with a TC super jag intalled on the end.Never use these but only in the field hunting.
