Default RE: .25 ACP breech plugs

The link I postedhad afew guys that have ACP and had issues withtheir loads notigniting.

I too can understand all the reasons you mentioned, and all of those were why I was intially interested.

However,after reading how some have had problems with ignition, that is not a feature I want to take a $60 plus chance on.The guys posting those problems did not seem to be the type to neglect in their shooting.
Justwanted to letPhill know there is some bad pressonthis breach.

If he doesn't already have one.
No I don't have one and won't be getting one either. A guy can buy alot of powder and bullets for what getting geared up with the ACP would cost. I'm not surprised about the ignition problems since the cartridge isn't actually open to the bore and its charge. If the cartridge casing were performing the funtion it does in the pistol, namely sealing the breech gases, then I could see some benefits, not the least of which would be reducing forces on the breech plug itself as the casing would carry some of it directly to the receiver.

Again, it is nice not to have to purchase one to find the information you guys provided. Thanks a bunch!

Happy Hunting, Phil
