I purchased a 209x50 magnum Encore barrel recently. The bore is pristine but the breech plug was pitted and blocked. I cleaned the breech plug up and cleaned the hole through it the best I could. I used a small drill twisted by hand to clean the primer side and an oxy acetylene torch tip cleaner to clean the small hole on the powder side. The end on the powder side is concaved. Is this for loose powder? Okay to use pellets?
Since the twist is 1-28, I plan on using the same bullet / sabot combination as my other inline ( 250gr TC shockwaves).
What is everyone using for a range rod?
Been using a TC platform for 30 years but never put a BP barrel on it.
Thanks in advance.
