As for the deer comment, i am shooting at my 50 yard range which is about 250 yards away from the deer area. Thanks to the mountain area, you can hardly hear the shots when someone is shooting at the 50 yard range.

Yeah thanks to you and your comment " best is a 5/32" flash channel" i now have a ruined plug that is dirtier than a catholic priest and doesnt fire on the first primer.

Let me guess, that flash channel works best for you on the custom lehigh plugs for a knight?

This is what the first primers look like. The first primer never sets the charge off now with the 5/32" flash channel.

Next 3 shots,


A great mess in the frame now as well,





Now i will have to order a new plug

Boy, those CVA'S are dirty. Hey send me that plug that's no good. And show me a picture of the powder end of the plug. I want to see the vent-liner.

im glad to see you think that its funny, it just shows everyone else what an A hole you are.

You ever shot the 5/32 channel in a CVA or just a knight? You said it was the best.

Luckily fedex just dropped off some cleaning supplies.

Please explain to me why Blkhorn shoots fine out of all my guns(t/c..triumph..ProHunter.Rem-Genesis) and CVA's cant seem to. What is the difference in the Bp's ? Would a hotter primer help the CVA's?

There are differing opinions as to why. My opinion is that the front of the CVA breech plug is too flat. The front of the Omega breech plug has a deep concavity. It is this concavity that makes it work, in my opinion.

When one makes a breech plug for the CVA that has this same concavity, one then experiences 100% reliability.

Now that's not very nice. I dont believe you did it right to tell you the truth. Show me a picture of the powder end of the plug.

You are right, there are different opinions for sure. The flat on the end has nothing to do with it. The Knight Vision plug is flat and it works fine with hotter primers. The Omega Encore plugs are very short. And to boot they have that concave that you are talking about. What that means is, BH209 is really close to the primer. That's why i believe they are reliable. The Knight Elite's/Extreme's have the same concave in one of there plugs. That's why they are reliable. The powder is close to the primer.

You can take any breech plug on the market, and make a 5/32 flame channel to a .031 vent-liner and it will shoot BH209. No problem at all. The Concave is not needed at all. I will say, i like the concave because i do like my powder as close to the primer in any ML or Rifle.

These are my opinions and i have tested all the way's mentioned many times. The powder does not care what gun it's in. The breech plug is the key.
