Traditions Cleaning Pick

A fouled channel turns a good shot into a click. Black powder does not forgive the step you skipped.

Most misfires start in a passage smaller than a pin, and most shooters never look there.

Clear the Channel: The pick removes fouling from nipple channels on percussion muzzleloaders and from flintlock touch holes. The spark gets a clean path to the charge.

Fast and Easy: A few seconds with the pick and the fouling is out. You are loading again while others are still guessing.

In the Field: You are on the ground at first light with one shot to make. You cleared the channel the night before, and the rifle fires when you ask it to.

Protected in the Pack: It rides in its own protective carry case. The pick stays protected and easy to find.

The Mark of a Careful Shooter: Those who shoot black powder well clean the small places. This is the tool for the smallest one.

One shot is all a muzzleloader gives you, so clear its path.
