I don't eliminate the o-ring. I put the shims under the o-ring.

Surprisingly the Wolf I have didn't need any shims and it's clean as a whistle.

Well Grouse I don't know how many shots you plan on taking while hunting. My Accura V2 has the CVA Blackhorn BP and I haven't had any issues with it. You may have read my latest thread on my hog/deer hunt. My rifle performed flawlessly taking 3 heads of game with 3 shots (one shot each).
Yeah there is some blowback from the primers but who gives a rat's butt? Ignition is reliable and the rifle is accurate. Who could ask for more?

yep, getting a rifle ready for hunting season in my house is cleaning them, inspecting for loose bolts/screws and making sure fire channel is clean, including on my caplocks.

Muley do you remember what kind of primers you were using? I'm currently using Winchester 209s.

I'm using Winchester T7 primers, because I use Schuetzen black powder. Very reliable ignition.

I'm not quite sure if its true or not but I read a couple years ago that standard 209 primers are too hot which causes the bullet to make a minor jump a little in the bore before the main charge ignites.
The primers for MLs aren't supposed to be as hot, eliminating this jump.
