I have read this several times and I cannot figure out what you are trying to say.Steve
remember your gun you are shooting is not period correct.
What after market barrel, what type sights, what twist and rifling is it.
That is not going to help your fight or work to compare when you are not shooting the same gun that they changed.
Its like calling Ford to complain about your chevy.....
It don't work.
The gun they changed is the N-SSA approved P1853 Enfield. Presumably they have also changed the P1858.
My suspicion is that when they released their Whitworth and Volunteer rifles, they put the cleanout screw in them. But since they probably share a breech with the Enfields, they may have decided to save on costs by using one single breech with one setup of tooling. This is speculation.
The complaint here is that they have screwed up the P1853 Enfield, and their other Enfield variants that should not have a clean-out screw.
