Does anyone make them for the non-QRBP for the older models. I haven't had any problems shooting BH in my Optima Elite but if the option is there I would probably get one.

Who is selling these breech plugs?
I recommend the Western Powder version. It cost a little more than the CVA version, but it comes with the proper size drill and holder to clean out the flash channel.

You can buy directly for Western, or buy from Carlos for a better deal.

I don't think so. I've never seen one.

Ron can probably modify your BP to work better.

You are correct, i will do the modification, but i do the work for a large fee for the amount of work involved. It has long been my recommendation one do that work themselves.

Whatever the fee is post it. It would make more sense to send it out and get it done asap. That's just my thinking on this.

Antelope season starts Saturday, and lasts 2 week.

Muzzle loader deer season starts in 3 week, and lasts 1 week

Deer season starts in a 5 week and lasts a month.

Muzzle loader deer season restarts in 2 month, and lasts 6 week.

Deer season reopens the day after Christmas, and last a week.

Turkey starts in a week, and lasts 4 month.




No, i will not advertise to do work that could interfere with my freedom to hunt. The actual work takes about 15 minute, i am plenty willing to do the modification, and there will be plenty of time for me to do the work during any hunting season, but i cannot bring myself to advertise, and that's how it is.

My next question would be is the replacement BP the same style that is in our Accura Mountain rifle, the easy remove type???

I don't have any problems shooting the BH209 now with the CVA factory BP in the MR.
