I've never used BH209, so I can't comment on that. This is what I use in my Encore. If you're at the range shooting it, I generally have to swab it out after about 7 rounds. When it starts getting dirty, I need to use my ball starter to push the ram rod all of the way in that last little bit. Like Pappy said, if I used hotter primers, I might not get build up in front of the chamber. But remove the breech plug and swab it out and you're good to go.
