I know exactly what I wrote, there was no misunderstanding. When I first started adjusting for primer crush (Info from a forum) I experienced a few things, after I heard there was an accidental firing due to crushing a primer my recommendations changed to adjust the firing pin bushing according to CVA's recommendations (Which specifically forbids crushing the primer) That is Flush with the breech face. If that would crush the primer a minute amount so be it. I do not recommend anyone to crush a primer. The O-ring is just one more way to crush a primer. I don't know how you got on this subject because all I said was I heard the O-ring will wear out in about 15 shots. I was not afraid crushing a primer was unsafe, I new that crushing a primer was unsafe, unless you discount a muzzleloader accidently firing from crushing a primer. Any other questions or remarks take it up with CVA they are probably more informed than me.

By the way just to be clear, I never mentioned anything about blow by or crushing a primer. You must be on your own trip.
