Subject: Re: MtMan-List: Barrel Hone?
So, go ahead and drill into the face of the breech plug. It really doesn't
hurt anything. Especially
if the breech plug is not removable.
I have a 54 cal rifle I bough about 25 years ago that someone drilled half
way through the face of the breech plug. I was pretty apprehensive about
using that gun after I realize that the threads had been drilled through,
but I shot that gun, often with charges well over 100 gr FFFG powder for
nearly 20 years without any sort of problem. A completely worn out frizzen
is the only reason I stopped using that gun. Besides, that was a good
excuse to buy a new gun. ;-)
I plan to resole that frizzen one day, when I find the time.
Drilling half way into the face of a breech plug does have the benefit of
allowing enough powder to be tricked through the touch hole behind a dry
ball to blow it out easily. Don't ask me how I know. ;-)
BTW, the plugs on many original guns were usually no more than 1/2 inch
long and so loose that they could almost be removed by hand. There has been
speculation that the breech plugs on allot of original guns were made this
way to allow the pioneers to remove the breech plugs in the event that a
ball became lodged in the bore. Other breech plugs were tapered for easy
removal with only a couple of threads entirely engaged with those in the
barrel.
Todays longer breech plugs fully seated on the bottom of the threaded
portion of the barrel is the ideal
situation and while much safer than the original method of installing
breech plugs, isn't really necessary for a sound barrel. The idea behind
the beefed up breech plugs is purely for reasons of liability for the
manufacturers.
