"Muzzleloading" 209 Primers

[Super Sneaky Steve]

I bought some fancy pants "muzzleloading" 209's made by Federal at Walmart. They make big promises but they didn't pan out.

I shot some today and they gave me worse accuracy. The cups are also steel unlike my cheap Chedite primers so I got more blowback and a dirty breach plug.

I switched back to the cheap French primers and all was good.

Federal muzzleloading primers don't seal. Talked to a fed rep years ago, His answer was to call federal and send them back. I did not. Will not use them again. Found some off brand mag 209 primers that work great with blackhorn209, Remington also work good for me.

Still having a good time with my Rem 97’s for plinking away. I have a box of Federals and CCI’s sitting in the bag just in case I decide to do some real hunting with the ML. So far with my limited experience I’ve seen a bigger difference in group sizes based on bullet choice and powder charge. All of them seem to make a mess in the primer areas and I just chalk it up to just being how it is with an inline.

SSS, If you wrap your breech plug in teflon tape + a bit of lube, you won't get as much blowback. A small wire brush will remove the teflon tape when you want to remove the breech plug and clean your rifle.

I use reg W209's and was mixing them up with Regular Fed 209's . Left me scratching my head with my load 370 Maxiball over 90gr of Goex FF . What I found out is the Fed's grouped 4" lower at 100yds than W209s . The Winchesters also grouped better as well . I thought that the ML 209s were created to help with the T7 crud ring .

I could only find the remington "muzzleloading" 209 primers. I stopped muzzleloading for that reason.
