Default Not planned vent liner test!!!

When we decided to start making vent liners at Lehigh Bullets we made two versions. A flat version and a domed version. We focused more on the domed version cause they looked better, and the pressure was directed away from the flame channel in the vent liner.

But after some unplanned testing, and testing bullets I found out the domed ventliner also lasts longer. And it seems pretty significant as well. I have the same treated flat and domed liners. The domed are pretty significantly better. I used to track shots but don't do that anymore.

Is the domed version interchangeable with the standard / stock flat top savage plug?

Yes

The thing i like about the dome vent is they seem to have a deeper allen key. Less chance of stripping.

They also do last longer for me vs standard Savage vents.
