Pin hole size?

[kevcarron]

Would anyone know the pin hole dia. in a Knight KRB7 breech plug? and what you use to clean the hole out with?

Not sure of the sure of the size - but you can go to a store that carries welding supplies and pick up a small tool of 'torch tip' cleaners they run about $5 and have many different sizes included...

Kevcarron,

Should be .027", they do wear, so it coud be a few thousandths bigger than that, depending on how many shots you have through it. Just be careful with the torch tip cleaners, you could be opening up your flash hole prematurily. I NEVER use an abrasive pic in the flash hole, always use a wire nipple pic made/marketed by T/C.

Here is a convenient one.

I find a large sewing needle along with very small eyeglass flat head useful for clraning and scraping carbon from plugs.
