As said it is a fairly easy fix but that's no excuse for CVA not to offer them ready to go. They can offer them for a QRBP fairly soon but cant or wont make an even more common product function better.

I emailed them asking why they don't offer a normal plug to the specs Western recommends (twice) and they have never responded in over 2 months.

The answer is simple. They want you to buy the new products and its possible some older models could be a liability that they don't want to take chance on. Lots of people think its ok to load up any loose powder to 150grs so it might be better to be safe than sorry.

Smokey,
The Kodiak uses an Accura V1 plug. Ron can fix you right up.

We all know the new BP should be made standard, when buying buying a new rifle. i didn't think it would be and apparently i was right. seems there going to try and make some extra money by making the BP a after market item. bad buisness!! Ray

Dudley said the new plugs will be out in june.

They are also going to look into a user friendly way of adjusting the head spacing.

Ron took care of me. I asked because I'm sure there are many users of BH209 that don't frequent this or other forums.

Rons plug modifications and homemade grade 8's are probably better then what will hit the market this summer.

When you see the IMR logo at the bottom of CVA's home page, its obvious why they are in no hurry to remedy the problem. Clicking the link takes you straight to White Hots.
