The breech plug i am using is the OEM Omega/Encore plug. The flash hole depth is as it was when TC made it. The flash hole was enlarged to 0.034", at which size it will remain for at least 700 shots.

The OAL of the plug hasn't changed from what TC made it.

The diameter of the primer pocket was increased to allow the pictured adapters from PR Bullet to fit.







The depth of the primer pocket was increased to allow the use of a 1.5mm thick metric o-ring to be installed before the adapter, and still allow the action of the Omega to close. The depth of the primer pocket was increased about 0.75 mm, if i recall correctly; perhaps a little more.
