From now on I'll snug (tighten) the BP down with the wrench and do the inspection inside the barrel to check the tape. This along with the O Rings should make a world of a difference. As I stated awhile back, the blow back was'nt all that bad, it was just on the fireing pin area and breech that surrounds it. This should be a big improvement I'll let you's know. The last thing I want to do is tun the threads in the Barrel, a BP can be replaced. My older style inlines had blow back pretty bad, plus I was using 150gr's of Pellets wich made it worse. After a session of shooting the outside of the breech area including the bottom of the scope was covered in blowback, I used to have to put bore butter on the outside of the barrel and scope where the blow back got just so it would clean off easier. Plus when I shot I'd actually feel the blowback particles hit me in the face.
Second I was afraid to look this morning after mentioning the (2-Piece BP) I thought I was gonna get thrown off the Forum,LOL! But hey ya never know if they had a 2-piece BP where the Primer was set inside then the second piece of the BP would screw onto it completely containing the Primer just leaving a small hole where the firing pin would ignite it, and when closed would make a tight fit.........
So on my Triumph the BP can only get tightened as much as the (turn) allows and no more, wich is good as you know when tight is tight, you cant overtighten it. On My ACCURA I'll just have to find that sweet spot.
Thank's for all the advice Mike, and everyone else, I'll let you know the results.
