Hopefully this will save someone from having to scramble looking for a case to borrow at a launch.
Earlier this year I purchased a CTI 54mm 6 grain case from Wildman. I didn't bother opening it until I took it to a launch. When I did open it up and the case had a blemish. it wasn't structural, but i wouldn't be able to resell it without taking a big hit. I returned it for a warranty exchange and upgraded to a 6XL case at the same time. I just received the new 6XL case and the tapered rear closure. Based on my previous experience I decided to open everything up and check that that it all looked good and fit together properly. Unfortunately the tapered closure wouldn't thread onto the case. I tried a standard closure and it fit. The tapered closure fit on my 4 grain case too, so the 6XL case must be on the high end of the tolerance and the tapered closure is on the bottom end.
Tim and CTI are handling this for me. They have been very responsive. Thankfully I'm not planning to use the case until the end of July.
