Well things have slowed way down on MK project... so today sitting around loading shotgun shells and watching football I cam up with my next little project...
I have totally been ignoring the Triumph - can not even remember when I might have shot it last. It is kinda a boring gun once I got it tuned in. It just plane shoots everything well and is really clean. I could not find a real challenge with the gun to hold my interest once I JB'ed the bore and got it accepting the bullets that I want to shoot.
Yesterday, in the mail I got a surprise, somebody listened to my pleading about the thought i would love to modify a Accura QPBP... So they sent me one. First thing I checked, after reading R. Laughlin's experiance was the nose of the plug. It arrived fine, it was packed and protected well.
Then since I was going to modifiy that plug i thought what the heck - let's get the Triumph Speed Breech modified at the same time - the go shoot some BH from it. I never have had a problem shooting BH from the gun but I really want to improve the gas movement in the plug, especially as long as it is.
If I had an Accura I would do the same from it also... Testing is always a good excuse to burn powder.... I just hate burning BH.
Anyway here is a picture of the project at the beginning....
When I move this porject to the shop - i will get some pictures of the steps for both plugs and then hopefully be able to show some good results....
Oh! Excuse the mess in the background - I will get it cleaned up sooner than later - I hope...
