A handheld tamping tool used to manually seat a wad in a shotshell hull during hand loading. Also useful to tamp down layers of tight-fitting buckshot within the wad/hull. The Shotshell Wad Ram is a two-part design with a threaded handle and ram.
Currently, only a 10/12 gauge ram is available, but I have plans to add additional interchangeable ram rods for other gauges (popularity of this model will determine how quickly I get around to doing so).

Printing:
The handle and ram should be printed as separate objects (although they can be printed at the same time if you prefer a solid-color tool). Optional: increase infill density of the ram to 25%.
Print both parts in the orientation shown to the right; no support required when printed in this orientation.
Assembly and Use:
Simply thread the handle onto the ram and tighten (finger-tight is sufficient). Use the tool to seat your wads (and if necessary, the buckshot, or gummy bears, or whatever else you might be loading) in your hulls.
