Why are you looking for a different reed? Maybe the BD5 is messed up? Most of them are! The rails are way too wide so the reeds don't respond very well, stuffy usually, but players like that open tip. Post a pic. My guess is you should have it refaced and have the rails narrowed. Then finding reeds that work will make like sweet again. I probably just made a whole lot of BD5 players angry, but before responding and looking bad, first have your mouthpieces adjusted. Then you are granted permission to post!
Paul and Bob are correct with using narrow German cut reeds; this avoids the thick wide rails, but it doesn't fix the problem with these mouthpieces. It surely helps the mouthpiece to respond a whole lot better.
