Default Ram rod for the Lyman Deer Stalker?

Is there an aluminum ram rod to fit this gun? We have fiberglass one on it is just too bending in it upon loading.
The noodle rod,thats on it,I don't want to curse. The boy,he is 46,was pushing down a ball and the rod flexed and tore a piece of the webbing between his thumb and finger off! Man was he disturbed[there other words to describe this but they delete them]!
It must seem like he and i are Dumb and Dummer,with this gun,could be,though?

My cure for ramrods like I want is to go to Ace Hardware buy a solid aluminium doll cut it the right length drill and tap both ends an 10-32. Works for me.

Mounting Man,

I see that you're in PA... check out what the folks at RMC have to offer. They're not far off Rt. 80 near Bellefonte. I've ordered from them many times. Nice folks with good service.

Go online and find Cain Outdoors. They will make you a custom ramrod. They also sell many different ramrods, flex kind, brass, etc.. and they cut them to your rifle. Just a thought.

mounting man,

I had a custom rod built by this fella a few years back. If you want an indestructible rod with a traditional look, check this out. They're Hickory rods with a solid steel core and you can get them in the length you want with your choice of fittings.
