The trick is to not make ramming so difficult that your ramrod will accidently snap and impale your hand.
For about $1, a thick, sturdy wooden dowel that's just under bore diameter can be purchased at the hardware or hobby store, or even in some Walmart craft departments. Then simply add a knob to the end of it to make a handle. A 7/16's dowel is pretty thick and shouldn't snap as easily as the 3/8's factory ramrod. Plus they're longer and will give more leverage for ramming all of the way down to the breech.
