The Whitworth was a breech-loading artillery piece. So, unless the breech mechanism was jammed the rammer figure is redundent. Just an FYI. grin

I know what you mean Dave, I first thought that.."odd..breach loader with a ramrod?" but He could be using a sponge to clean the Barrel?

I'm not sure why but artillery crews always look better in shirt sleeves and of course braces.
