how often should a guy clean there breach plug while shooting bh 209 with federal 209a primers
 
I clean my plug every time the bore gets cleaned. So after every shooting session.
 
Yep I agree 100% clean it after each shooting session. BH209 fouling will rust your Breech Plug under the right conditions.
 
depending on how heavy a load, it will clog in 15-20 shots. so If your shooting a lot, you will have to clean the breechplug long before the barrel
 
Shooting Bh 209, I clean the breech plug every 8 or 9 shots, or else I start getting flyers. At least I blame it on the breech plug. Maybe me just being old and set in my ways.

I soak bp in hoppes 9 while I clean the barrel, to clean the bp after soaking, use a q tip and a torch tip cleaner to make sure its open. The tip cleaner also lets me guage the bp for wear. Hope this makes cents to you. HC.
