I was at the Eastern Rendezvous a few years back and came across a fellow who was selling cleaning jags and worms that were at least 4-5 inches long. I bought one in 40 cal and have been trying to find other sizes for a long time without any success. I know, I should have bought every size he had. Anybody know of a source where I can get long cleaning jags?

frank, try Larry Callahan tel. #636 475 7444 he mades some pretty durn good stuff he also advertises in the ML mag if he doesn't answer leave a message because he will get back to you i have some of his stuff A+ work

Why? What would be the advantage?
And, with the worms, I believe there would be increased chances of scratching your barrel. Oh, well. Each to his own.

not if you use tow and water and dry tow to dry the barrel i have been using them for years now and never had any problems besides it is what they used back in the 18th and 19th century

A long jag or worm is very useful when hunting and using the ramrod that is on the rifle.

Curt Lyles also sells some that he makes. Just google Curts blacksmith shop

A few years ago Muzzleloader magazine had an ad by a company making and selling three inch (or so) tow worms and ball screws.

These guys never had the item on their online catalog, but if you called them they would sell you a pair. Might do the same online. Here's their website...they are the "Other TVM" in Corinth MS.

TOW also carries them for about $8......I have several!!!!

Got one from Track of the Wolf. Looks good for anything above 45 cal. A little snug for my 45 cal rifles, but should work good on my 50, 54, and 62 cal rifles.

Good Doin'.....really like mine and they are cheap enough to put one in each shooting bag...for each weapon!!! Glad you like it!!
