So its "torqued" but by fingers, which can be measured
Neither was the Teflon tape or o-ring that I added. This was after my first range session, not knowing what to expect.
Neither what? Sentence has me wondering? Were you trying to imply there was no blow back to the plug in the photo?
Just a dab of oil on the threads will do ya!
Where's the oil?
No tape, grease, anti-seize, or torque wrench required on a finger removable breech plug. :yeah:
Unless I'm wrong, that photo clearly shows pink tape?
Although the question clearly asked, "I'm asking those who DO NOT use any type of QR BP (finger type)", Have you taken off the "O" ring that you added, removed all that pink tape, used just oil and fired the breech plug 25 times then checked it?
Over 25 times, yes. That was my point, I had the plug all "doctored up" for the first range session, and none of it was needed. Just a light coat of oil on the threads after that.
You actually can use the wrench on this breech plug if you wish. Not needed after initial installation, once the flange is married to the barrel. This is with Blackhorn 209 powder.
I guess your explanation would have been much better then, had you not included the photo of a hand tightened breech plug covered in tape.
