Installing the ramrod ferrules or pipes:

Brian worked on cleaning up the ramrod pipe castings. Then used a 3/8" drill bit to open up the pipes.

  Brian used needle files to remove the castings off of the pipes and then proceeded to use various grades of sandpaper wrapped around a popsicle stick. 

They turned out alright. Do you agree? 

Then the pipes were installed into the rifle and then pinned with 1/16" pins.
