Contact Jerry Cleave here. He makes Pope style and may be able to make a spare rod for your Distant Thunder tool if you send him the tool or a rod to copy from. Another option is a sleeve that can slip over a smaller rod to make it work with the larger caliber. Like this set Jerry made for me: (You need to *Login* or *Register* to view media files and links)

	I have an brand new unused .38 cal rod for Jim's O'Hare Tool decapper that I've never used. I use a .40 cal rod for both .40 and .45 decapping so the .38 should also work for .40 caliber. I'll sell it for $20 shipped. PM me. Thanks. Wayne
