Breechplugs are cheap enough to buy and have an extra on hand. I have a new spare one on hand for all My MLers.
Also I've never used a drill bit to clean mine, I have a solid piece of stainless the size of the flash hole that I just push through it to clean. As I mentioned in a preveious Thread, I've never worn out a BP and I do shoot. That one you pictured Corey is quite the difference.

I think it very fitting to post this Quote:
It seems more MLer Manufactures today are focused on making the Breechplug better. Im not talking about a (Quick Release) BP as being better, Im talking about what makes a BP just plain better than the rest, and why? Why do some allow minimal fouling and others will blow the powder in your face.
I chose the name breechplug when I joined this Forum because I always thought the BP was one of the most Important parts of the ML. So why is it taking the Manufactures so long to develope a Great One? In your Opinion wich one do you think is the best and why?
(BP)
