I have one of the rods. It is absolutely the best quality and 200% better than the original. It also extends two inches longer than the stock rod so that you have plenty to hang onto when using, it has the correct threads not like the original, the end is relieved for pointed bullets too. It is well worth the money.

Just got my new rod from Hubbard's.  What a piece of craftsmanship!  REALLY well made.  And get this....when I offered to supply him with my credit card number he said,"No, just send me a check when you get it."  Hard to believe there are still those who do business the old fashioned way!  I asked him how many times he didn't get paid, and he indicated none.  His words, "I guess us outdoorsman are just a different breed."  Great company and great product!

Has anyone purchased a replacement breech plug from him?  If so, do they use the same orange primer holders?

I replaced mine with the .25ACP conversion which I like a lot. I do not know what Hubbards has for breechplugs.

Last time I talked to him (been a couple years), the breech plugs were for the 1970's H&R Huntsmans. He was not making any for the newer NEF Huntsmans at that time, but did state he should get something going for the newer ones. I have never heard where he did though. Might be worth a call?
