White Breech plug vent liner??

[muzzlestuffer]

Ok what side and part of the plug should I measure the section that the nipple sits on or the back side where the flash of the primer exits the plug ?

The exit opening next to the powder.

Pin gauges. I got these and find they match up to my calipers and mic right on.

If you beak one you can get individual replacements from McMaster Carr.

Love mine. They are in .001" increments so it makes it easy to check holes sizes. Hope you like them.

I need to get the next couple sets up.

What breech plugs do you check with yours whites ?

No I don't have any whites, at least not yet. :wink: I have several Knights that I check to keep and eye on the Flash hole erosion. I check the nipples in others. I also use these for measuring other holes in things too, that's why I need some larger sets too.

Can someone post a white plug with a vent liner installed and not installed ?

That would be great to see them. I ordered the pin gauges last night.

Is there a chart of flash hole sizes min and max

Not to my knowledge. They seem to vary a bit depending on manufacture and type of ignition. I have 3 ventliners that are new, one Lehigh is .031" and 2 Savage type from ASG are .029". Flash holes in Breech plugs vary too. I have seen some that were .029 and as large as .035" (Large Rifle Primer).

Re: RE: Re: White Breech plug vent liner??

I think that once your hole gets to be .036" or so you will start to see accuracy start slipping. My opinion is that the flash hole should be as small as possible as long as you still get dependable ignition. I think I get by with smaller holes because I use "real" black powder.

Doc says new plug should be .32 thou
