Breech Plug/Nipple Hand Drills....
 
Since it seems that most of us need to 'drill' out the flash channel of the breech plugnow and then when shooting BH-209 - came up with a thought, but it was inspired by Paia on MM.

Here is his idea - he made this for this project....



I do not have the access to a great metal knurled hand with set screw, but I do have a wood shop.... so a piece of hardwood dowel, a drill bit of the correct size,and some expoxy glue and you have a field hand drill for my Omega.... (do not mind the sewing machine in the background - I have to share the "MAN" room with my wife, and the grandkids when they visit....)





and, then for the Knight Disc and the Remington 700 I need a longer reach so I do not have to pull the BP or the nipple....

The nipple on the Remington is made in Canada so ittakes a metric drill and the BP of the Knight uses the standard 1/8" bit.... Now,all I do is remove the bolt and reach in with one of these...



These are just used at the range or the farm in my case when shooting several rounds in a row....
