Overview
Designed for NitroFire and Pursuit xT owners, this telescoping ramrod adds extra reach for loading and cleaning without taking up much space in storage. It extends with a quarter-turn lock, and the flip-out T-handle gives a more controlled grip during use. When finished, it retracts back into the rod body and stores in the thimbles for a compact carry setup. The all-in-one design with a threaded brass loading tip keeps the tool straightforward for range work and routine maintenance.

Considerations & Trade-offs
- Designed specifically for NitroFire and Pursuit xT models, so fitment is not universal across other firearms.
- The rod is intended to add loading or cleaning length, not to serve as a full-length range rod.
- The T-handle and telescoping design add convenience, but they also introduce moving parts that require unlocking, extending, and re-locking before use.
- It retracts for storage in the thimbles, which is practical, but the closed length is still 22.5" and may be longer than some compact carry setups prefer.
