For you guys shooting BH 209, will it work ok with a KNight Wolverine, .50 with the disk to hold the primer, assuming I use standard shotgun primers.? All feedback appreciated!

No, thats a plunger style gun. Both that and the discs are wrong for that powder. you wont get the primer seal needed, and ignition will be unreliable.
Squeeze is reporting the same thing my friend is finding with his Knight. He went back to Triple7 and all is well (I'm not promoting Triple7, I personally hate the stuff. My in-line is a TC and I use BH209).

Love me some Triple 7. Shoots great in my NEF Huntsman, easy to clean, and almost as cheap as Pyro. Although, I wouldnt use Pyro if it was free.

I am using Alliant Black MZ in a Knight Littlehorn and Wolverine both use the red plastic primer jackets (newest style). Also Black MZ in a older Knight with #11 nipple.
A few weeks ago I re-used a plastic jacket (5) times with no gas leakage. (0.452" - 255 gr FN in sabot over 80 gr vol. equiv. Black MZ using WW 209 shot shell primers)
No issues with either set-up.
