Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Muzzleloaders 777 Primers with BH 209

Can't imagine any 209 NOT igniting BH209. Maybe I've been lucky.

I couldn't find 209s last year.... I did find a VariFlame large rifle primer breech plug. The sales pitch made sense.


I run CCI 250s... haven't had a failure yet. Knock on wood.


I believe 209s are way more powerful than 250s.


Clean up and fouling is minimal too.
