The Thompson/Center T-Handle Short Starter is a lightweight, compact short starter with a palm saver built right into the end. The T-handle starter features a removable seating end which allows you to convert your ramrod into a work rod. Also, by removing the seating end of the rod and screwing the T-Handle onto a standard ramrod, it will extend the length of your ramrod for easier seating of projectiles, especially during continuous shooting at the range. The short starter will provide you with extra leverage for firmer more uniform seating, effectively converting your ramrod into a range rod.
