I do, I've got one exactly, 560 gr M2, 25/1, cept it does hit everything you point it at, I've got a rifle right now that I'm in a real argument with, gonna start ramming one of these rods down it's throat, hope it chokes on it, maybe that'll learn it :roll:

I never use anything but a Delrin rods in my Shilohs. No, I don't try to push them holding on the end of the handle either, usually patched tight enough that it would cause rod flexing. My rifles with MVA tang sights that fold front wards or to the rear will work with a hard rod but the guns with Pedersoli tangs the sight only folds to the front. Obviously the Delrin is the only way to go on these guns. I also just don't like the idea of a metal cleaning rod in my barrels with these guns. bobw

Delrin wiping rods.

I spoke to the owner about getting one in a 38 caliber. He went in on Sunday, to turn one down, and mail it out on Monday!
