This certainly helps reduce blow back also.....

I could show you a prime example of this with my Omega and the 25 acp conversion if you want to drive a few thousand miles...

I think lee has also pointed out that there is no standard length in the world of shotgun primers... Winchesters being the longest - near .030 and Cheddite being one of the shorter @ .286 in length
Mike, when the ACCURA is closed it is tight so I cant see what's going on with the Primer and if there's any room inbetween the primer and breechblock. I mostly use T7 Primers, Win W209's my second choice. I have'nt checked to see wich primer leaves the most blowback but I will. I just checked and the Win W209 Primers are a tad bit bigger than the T7's
