Thanks Sabotloader - great info I did not know.
Makes me think I may have been out of line a time or 2 in the past.

Hate to hijack here but, sl, I have two visions, each came with a different style bp. One has issues, the other doesn't. Knight has asked me to send it in for inspection. Both are crazy accurate. One has a cone shape on the inner side , the other is flat. When you are talking about opening the flame channel, does the vent liner keep the powder from entering the channel? Excuse my ignorance,,,thanks..

Exactly correct -One is the latest plug they built for the Vison and it is an excellent plug with T7 and BH + it is a ton cleaner... The cone plug is the older and more picky plug... talk to Gordy @ Knight and he will get you the correct plug.

It does... the flame channel is the area directly under the primer down to the flash hole...

Here are some pictures that might help you...

Sabotloader, thanks for the pics, makes it easier to comprehend what's going on. Just got the vision sent out today, talked to sam. For the money, a very good shooter. I shoot bh out of both and haven't had any issues with that end as far as the bp's go. The issue is the one with the flat bp, the firing pin doesn't hit the primer every time, just barely a dimple. The coned bp has a fairly strong magnet that pulls the primer in, do get a little more blowback on that one, though the other bp's pretty tight and i have to take pliers to get some primers out. I do have an accura that all primers seem to fit in pretty loose yet i get very little blowback? go figure. Knights customer service seems above normal and they are nice as pie, hope they get back on track. To bad they don't all make a universal bp, so they'd be easy to replace.

Sam is one of the real good guys at Knight - he will get you fixed up...

I will not say that is a common issue but it is a real easy fix.. the lock up bar is just not moving forward far enough on the barrel lug. They will fix that and have it back in no time....
