Baker rifle ramrod thread pitch

[djack]

Does anyone know the thread size for a Baker rifle ramrod. The rifle is from MilitaryHeritage. The closest that I can match it to is a 12-24 however, it is not the perfect fit. Thanks.

Why not call Military Heritage and ask? Its probably a metric size, and that is why you can only get close.

It should be drilled and tapped for 12-24 but then since it was made in India I could be anything including metric. If you can't find someone with a set of thread gages I'd have to say call Military Heritage and ask.

Just take the sucker with you to a hardware store and try an assortment of metric bolts. Shouldn't be too difficult to find a match.

:hatsoff: :surrender:

Answer is: 7/32" BSF. Thanks to all those with helpful input.

You gona be able to re-thread that to something more useful or are you going to make an adapter to fit it and the more standard threads. I'd suggest you use gun tools that are on a 10-32 thread rather than 8-32. :hatsoff:

 

[djack]

I will try to re-thread them to a standard size. Like you, I'm thinking that a 10-32 is my best route. It's a little hardier than a 8-32 for my bore size, and I've seen more 10-32 sized attachments available to choose from.
