I recently converted my Knight Ultra-Lite from musket caps to a bare 209 primer system using the official Knight conversion kit. Everything seemed fine at first, but now I’m running into an issue: after firing, the 209 primer gets stuck in the pocket of the bolt—as seen in the attached photo. I have to use needle nose pliers to remove it each time.
Dry firing multiple times doesn’t help loosen it, and it’s becoming a consistent issue.
My question is:
Do I need to shim the breech plug’s primer pocket?
If so, where can I buy the correct shims for this setup?
