Should have bought bergara rifle barrels for it. They are far better than tc's.
But it only makes sense you sold them at a lose. Nowadays guns go down in value. Hell I see 250-400 dollar barrels sell for 150-225, all the time.

For me, I just can’t see a “range rod” being that beneficial. My gun’s ramrod is cut down so that it can accept the SpinJag loader. So, it’s so short that I would definitely notice if I double charged, etc. I use BH209, so I really don’t need to swab or clean the barrel at the range (i.e. there is not a lot of jag changing going on). And during a range session, I just slip a muzzle/crown guide on my ramrod and leave it on the whole session.
So…what am I missing here?

Thanks, im ordering another one.
I think many of us suggested having them on sale shortly after they were offered. Its a great range rod but the original price was hard for many people to consider.
The current price will average out the original price i paid to a more acceptable level and hopefully others will buy one now. The price is great and hopefully after the "sale", the "normal" price will be adjusted to a more attractive price point.

Don't worry about it donjose, these are all the same guys, that knight does no wrong and as soon as some one has a bad experience they all chime in with how it must be you, and you are the ass for not being satisfied with the ****ty service, you are getting.
If knight is better off, you not ordering from them. Maybe they will be better off, if no one does. It doesn't matter the customer, from what I have read with your and MD's experience, they are definatly not the old knight but a plastics company trying to play a gun mfg. It is very sad that they can not do a better job of getting people trained and up to par, knowledge wise, to deal with customers. You would think they would want to do a better job so, they can keep their employees working and out of the unemployment line.

So far I have only posted on this forum but soon I will travel to other forums and let them know as well....

Ron - I just use my gun's ramrod. After I am done shooting at the range, I change to a cleaning jag and run a few patches of Hoppe's down the barrel so that it has time to work during the trip home. Then I clean later that day.

7.62 I used to think and do the same. But, if you had a range rod, you would never use the one that came with it. Except to reload in the field. They are so much easier and have, something to push down on, when you have a tight loading bullet. Instead of the rod killing your hand.

Thats just what I did for many years, I received one of the new rods we are talking about as a gift now if I got to the range with out it I would go back and get it. It made a difference in my groups I am not real sure why just that it did improve them.
