Abstract: An archery adaptation for a tamping Rod Assembly which serves as a stabilizer adapter for an archery bow to be secured to the slide, and slide rod assembly of the tamping rod assembly by providing a stabilizer adapter for securing the slide rod to the stabilizer base on the archery bow, and at the opposite end of the slide rod assembly, providing a puller-adapter for an arrowhead. The method of the present invention is practiced by utilizing the slide rod assembly of the tamping rod assembly when the broadhead puller-adapter is applied. As a stabilizer, the combination of the slide rod assembly connects the arrowhead puller-adapter at the remote end, and the stabilizer adapter secures the same to the bow at the near end facing the archer. In the stabilizer mode, the slider is empirically moved forwardly and rearwardly to accommodate the "recoil" experienced by the archer.

Abstract: A muzzle loader rod assembly of the present invention is an elongate sectioned rod, preferably made of brass is disclosed. At one remote end of the rod, a slide telescopingly surrounds the rod and is removably secured thereto by means of a set screw or similar fastener to prevent rattling when the product is in the field and to further secure the parts together. A wide variety of tools can be secured to the end of the ramrod accessory tamper portion and coupler including bullet removers, patch removers, tampers, cleaning tools, brushes, and the like. In use for bullet removal, the bullet removal member is secured to one end of the accessory tamper end of the rod, and then tapped in place by dropping the reciprocating slide. No particular real strength is required to do this. When the bullet extractor is removed, the accessory coupler becomes a tamper. The bullet tamped into the powder with an empirically determined number of strokes of the dropped slide which imparts uniformity of tamping to each charge.
