[QUOTE="ENCORE, post: 732616, member: 33046"] Use the T-EZ. Most rifles start loading easier the more they're shot. I just had a person over that purchased a new Traditions Vortek and needed help. I can assure you, that was the tightest barrel that I've ran across in a long time. The T-EZ loaded hard and the crushed ribs loaded hard. So hard that I brought out the precision tooling to verify the forces required to just push it down the barrel. They were reaching 88 to 95#, which is way to much force. He put almost 100 rounds through it and it started loading very well. After the season is over here in MI, he's going to JB the barrel. I fully expect he'll have no further trouble loading. If your rifle is loading that hard, I'd try the T-EZ which many with tight bores have found to load and perform perfect. I'd also run some JB through that barrel many times.

Screw your Barnes bullet starter jag into the end and start the bullet. Then, turn the handle over and place it over the ramrod. No problems with sore palms....... [/QUOTE]
