Got these in the mail today. My callus on my palm is finally softening up and so this i found to be an interesting accessory for the field.



I only shot my Optima 3 times today at 100 but had a heck of a group. The palm pad as i call it worked nicely and i never felt the ramrod digging into my palm.
I figured since its light weight and non bulky, just throw it in my pocket during hunting season and save my cold hand some pain LOL.

Palm Savers are great.... I have been using them in the field for quite awhile now.
I am sure most of you have seen this common wood 'Palm Saver' and my feeling are that it would work better than the leather one especially if you need to tap a little on it to seat the load or PRB.

Another way to go here is just go to your local hardware store and puchase a large wood cabinet door knob, drill out the screw hole to fit your ram rod.
The one that i really like for hunting is the old fashioned TC 'T' Handle. The best part about it, it also strores your 209 primers in a nice water proof pocket.

Both of these drop in your pocket and work very well, easy to find and quick to use.
