You're welcome, I'm glad I could help.
You can probably order them online today !

Pecatonica was out when I called a little while back, however they were looking forward to some coming in soon.
Oregon Barrel Company had Flintlock Breech plugs and was expecting caplock breech plugs soon. The Flintlock Breech Plug I purchased from them a couple of months ago was cast.
Track of the Wolf has Flintlock as well and waiting on caplock too. The Flintlock Breech Plug I purchased from the a couple of months ago was machined.
Rice has Caplock breech plugs, however they are a little pricey as the are machined, not cast. $75 each. They are allegedly going to make drop in barrels for the T/C traditional style muzzleloaders. I have yet to see one, but it would be nice if they did produce them.
On a side note I lucked into a Green Mountain .58 cal slow twist barrel 33 inches long in the scratch and dent isle at Dixie Gunworks late last week. They did not have any .54 cal (seen your WTB post).
Tipi Curtis used to stock them also.
You can try eBay too. There are some for sale.
You have to watch buying used or factory breech plugs as many T/C plugs are 11/16" instead of the more common 3/4" that most after market barrels use.
Doesn't track of the wolf still have those available? I have bought a number of them there.
Try log cabin shop. Dan has a lot of t/c parts
