It might work with a different primer but not with the federal I have.
So for now I'm sticking with the full plastic jacketand stock breech plug
I would like to help you with your Gen II plug if you think I can or you might want some help.
First off... the fir in the bolt... because Knight had a few different companies make bolts for them and it was a low bid item - not all bolts in the DISC series are created equal. The bolts in the LRH are the usual culprit but in your case you might have one in an Extreme...
This might help explaine the problem...
If you can get to this thread over on MM it will explain what is going on...

Primer Sticking in the BP... was a/the problem with the first bunch of BP that Dave made it has since been corrected, well I thought it was corrected.
Which primer was sticking?
Fixing the primer pocket is a fairly easy project and if you let Dave know I think he will attend to it right away or if I can help you I would certainly be willing to do that.
I shoot mainly W209's but they are the longest and skinniest of the primers I have. I also shoot a lot of Cheddites and they are the fatest primer ( and shortest) I have. They extract with a bit of pressure but nothing hard.
