Ok, now I think I understand. I have the three inch long jag you pictured above. I'm going to have to get to the store and buy a few more things. The weather is beautiful out and I still can't shoot because I can't get a load of dirt delivered for a backstop. I'm sure they will bring it just in time for all the rain we have coming. Man this is frustrating.

Since you're headed to the store, these are some of the things I always thought were necessary to shoot and enjoy black powder rifles. Granted having some negates others, but I think you get the idea....
