This doesn't seem to be 100% true. Myself, i have experienced delay when shooting with the factory plug with zero blow by. I have extensively tested my Accura in sub-zero weather, and it is obvious to me, that the original CVA breech plug design is faulty. Others are spending monies to have their plugs modified, because they are tired of ignition problems. It doesn't seem to me people would needlessly spend money. CVA should know better than most, whether their plug works; they themselves are providing a plug that works more better igniting BH.



Months ago MAX Muzzleloader did an article on the plug designed by Western Powders, and provided pictures of their prototype. The Apex plug i have, isn't the same as the plug Russel wrote about. The dimensions are different, and as i previously wrote are nearly a perfect copy of the Omega breech plug.

The Black Horn plugs now being sold by CVA, don't seem to be the same as the design provided by Western Powders.




In my original post in this thread, i provided factory photos of the breech plugs from TC, and CVA. Simply put, the photos show that the TC plug is not a 'big time' copy of the CVA plug, which was erroneously written.
