    Has anyone tried these 209 nipples made for the Ruger Old Army by Mag Spark?
    I'd like to know if they cause any hammer blow back, especially when used with Black Horn 209 powder.
    I'd also like to know how loose or tight the primers fit in them and if there's any leakage.
    It might depend on the size of their flash hole, as to whether the hammer holds the 209 primer in place when the powder ignites or if the primer backs out which leaks hot gases.

    They were being sold on eBay a couple of years ago by a Mag Spark dealer.
    Mag Spark sells them for $90 a set.

    Here's where they can be purchased:
