TCA's deluxe bullet starter is a hardwood starter that is similar to the standard except that it offers the added feature of what is called a palm saver. The T-Handle bullet starter features a hardwood handle with a 2-piece solid brass rod, coupled with standard 10x32 threads. By removing the seating end of the brass rod, and screwing the T-Handle onto a standard ramrod, it will extend the length of your ramrod for easier seating of projectiles.
