Default Thompson Center breech plug removal

Hey Guys,

Last week I shot my Tc Omega Z5. I wanted to clean it but was unable to remove the breech plug. I tried using the lug wrench but it is really tight. I cleaned the barrell and did not go any further because this week is our early muzzeloder season in PA. My question is, when I am going to clean after this week, can I use wd-40 to remove? Also, instead of using the provided socket. Can I just use a regular socket. I know this is probably an easy fix, but the provided removal tool seems to be stripping the edges of the breech plug. Any suggestions?

Stay Safe!

KC
