Thompson Center Arms 9050R T-Handle Short Starter - Black Aluminum

The Thompson Center Arms 9050R is a T-handle short starter built to give muzzleloader shooters a quick, comfortable way to begin seating a round ball or conical bullet in the bore. Its 10/32 thread mates with most standard muzzleloader ramrods and accessories, so it slots into virtually any black-powder loading kit as a direct replacement or spare.

Machined from lightweight black aluminum, the 9050R keeps your range bag or field pouch light without giving up the strength needed to start a projectile past the muzzle crown. The T-handle sits naturally in the palm for positive control on cold-range starts, and the compact form factor travels easily alongside ramrods, patches, and other muzzleloader accessories. Use it to start the bullet, then finish the load with your standard ramrod for consistent seating every time.

Whether you run a Thompson/Center Encore, Impact, or Omega, or any other muzzleloader built on the standard 10/32 ramrod thread, the 9050R T-handle short starter delivers the same dependable performance Thompson Center Arms has built into muzzleloader gear since 1967.
