Bore Guide/Crown Saver

Recommended Posts

I have been using this gadget for the past 6 years or so and I have found it can make a big difference in how the muzzleloader shoots. Its a bore guide that is made from Delrin (plastic nylon kind of stuff) that I machined half of the outside diameter to fit my bore and the inside has a hole just big enough for my ramrod and bullet guide to slip through. I made a groove in the to to allow the guide to be attached to a call lanyard. This way while I am hunting or at the range, the guide is hanging around my neck and I don't have to look for the last place I had it.

Thet guide goes over the ramrod and slips in the bore guiding the ramrod, bullet/sabot, cleaning patch, etc down the center for the bore. The rod never touches the rifling and definately never touches the crown. This will prolong the accuracy of the gun.

This is the guide on my Encore handgun Power Rod:
