Knurled to provide maximum contact between patch and bore. Long stepped shank prevents patches from binding. Concave tip allows use for loading. Adds 3-3/4" to ramrod length.The Extended Jag is necessary for cleaning the Encore 209 Magnum Muzzleloaders and Omega muzzleloaders. The knurled portion of Super Jag spins freely. This spinning makes loading sabots easier as the sabot is allowed to follow the rifling all the way down the bore until it is seated. Also makes cleaning more efficient as the patch, swab, or bore brush follow the rifling grooves as the rod is pushed/pulled up and down the bore. Solid brass.
