That would be my impression, as well.In other words, it generally will not be needed, but if it is needed, it will be needed badly.
The only time I ever managed to rim-lock a Mosin, was when I intentionally loaded the rounds and tried to force a rim-lock. Even then, I had to mess with the interrupter to make it happen. And that was even with a 'parts gun' M38 that doesn't have a matching serial number anywhere.
But, I do know that the problem can be much more common for some people.
