Whats the hole for in the breech plug of a lyman great plains rife (caplock, .54)? I didn't even notice it until I was browning the barrel. I have the rifle done(unless I have something I need to do with the hole). Seems like it should have a screw or something in it to keep from having powder flash back and burn the stock
I don't think there is any hardware left in my kit, just the extra rear sight, the nipple, and 2 extra screws (1 wood, one machine screw) I don't think the machine screw fits the hole in the breech plug though.
I'm going to have the people at the shop I bought the kit at look it over before I shoot it, so its not too big a deal. But if anyone could clue me in on this I'd appreciate it, I'd like to get the go ahead to head straight for the range once I get time to head back up there, instead of chasing small peices around the bed of my truck for an hour first
