I just bought a used TC Omega and need to know how to remove the breech plug. Is the plug one solid threaded piece or is it the type you just turn a quarter turn and it comes out. I do not have the owners manual and I don't have a tool to remove the plug. What type wrench removes the plug? I need some general info on the plugs removal. Thanks guys in advance for the help!

It screws all the way out. You can get it out with a socket or nutdriver,I think it's a 7/16. It's probably gonna be stuck and you'll probably need to buy another one. I always take mine out when I'm not using it.

I bought a used TC Omega. I called TC customer service & they sent me an owners manual & some cleaning items. I highly recommend Black Horn 209 powder. Use a 7/16 deep socket to remove the breech plug.

They are right. If yout didn't get the tool, it's a 7/16 or 11mm. I have the tool but use s nut driver instead. Easier.

Put some bore butter on the threads when yout get done. Make it easier to get out next time.

Been shooting one since 2006. Been s good one.

Squirt it with some pb blaster and get someone to stand on the gun while you torque on the breech plug with a socket. Then start using bore butter and removing the breech plug when not shooting the gun.

I don't use bore butter, I use Never Sieze.

It may be Never Sieze that I use. Anything's got to be better than leaving it in there with nothing.

I've also learned to pull the action down and store it muzzle down, or take the trigger assembly completely out when storing.

Worked just fine. Wasn't stuck at all and cleaned up pretty well after running the BH209 through it. I was shooting 70 grains of powder and a 250 grain spire Point bullet and it was absolutely stacking them in the same hole. I made 3 adjustments on the scope and had it 1" high at 50 yards-shooting in my back yard. I shot again at 50 and could not see where the bullet hit the target. I was thinking I might have pulled off, or something just went wrong, so I shot again. I walked down to the target and there was a ragged, three shot hole in it. To me, that is unheard of with a muzzle loader. I think this one is a keeper! The BH 209 also kicks a lot harder than the pyrodex I used to use. It packs a wallop.
