the flash hole isnt very picky, the flash channel on the other hand is. Reduce the size of it with carbon, and you cut down the amount of hot gas getting to the powder. Let that happen and thats where your hang fires, no fires come from.
If you ever get a no fire, make sure you re-seat your bullet as the primer will blow the bullet a good 6 to 8 inches off the charge.

i understand now just seems like alot of hassle lol pay this kind of money and then have to "fix it" before ya can use it..but it did look nice as far as keeping your gun cleaner
Do what he says, i did on my cva accura v2 and it worked!!! you wont believe the difference.

Never heard of a TC having any problems shooting BH, but heard of some other brands needing the breech plug reworked. BH needs a hot primer, Federal is the hottest, then CCI mags and these are the only 2 I would recommend. I've shot my encore over 15 times during an afternoon with no issues using BH and no cleaning of anything.
