Default Drill size for CVA Breech plug

I picked up a 1/8" hex shank drill for cleaning the carbon buildup on my BP's
It was to big,it fit the TC just fine.
So I went back today with a BP and the size for the CVA's is 3/32"
At least for the one's I have.I don't know if the newer guns feature a redesigned BP or not.
Hope this saves someone a second trip.

Love to help you here but I do not own a CVA. Is this drill size for there type 'speed breech' or a regular screw in breech?

This is for the standard screw in type.

I just got a load of carbon out of mine using some Hoppee's
Clean,clean now.

saxman1, what I've been using is a tip cleaner that welders use for cleaning there cutting torch tips. Any good hardware store should have a set of cleaners. They come with several different sizes in the pack.
