This morning i ordered some vent liner from Lehigh. I plan to use them to improve the Accura breech plug. When i finish, i plan for the modified Accura breech plug to look more like the Omega breech plug.
I have studied up on this a bit, and have one question. You have a 5/32" fire channel in the modified breech plug. You mention how you drilled all the way through the breech plugs to establish the hole for the 10-32 tap. It seems to me that the 5/32" hole is a bit smallish for the tap. I was wondering if it would be best for me to use a #21 drill, instead of the 5/32" drill, or did you find it was just fine to tap the 5/32" hole? If not, i would end up with a slightly larger than 5/32" fire channel, and am wondering if that would be a bad thing.
