Bolster type w/tang, threaded 5/8” X 20 metric. High quality forging semi-polished. Solid and well made with beautiful snail shape around nipple area. Good Hawken type breechplug for 1” barrels but will fit 15/16”. If your barrel already has a smaller threaded breech, you hand file the 5/8” plug down to 9/16” or ½” diameter, and rethread.
