Does the cabelas 209 conversion kit keep the flash down in the bolt area better than the remington 209 kit? And is it easier to pull the primer out after the shot?
A big YES! to both questions - it is a much better conversion than the Remington... + it is really easy to make a weather shield from a 20 guage shotgun hull that will provide extra protection to the scope.
Even with the Cabelas conversion there still will be some blowback..

I tried your weather shield and it looks like it will work. I'm going to try the conversion kit next Thanks I tried to post pics through photobucket but it won't work
Both my Remingtons came with factory weather sheilds. Maybe they were both early models?
That is a nice TH stock. I had some one ask once if they came with a wood stock? I didn't ever hear of one and supposed you had bought a custom stock to work on yours.
My 54 cal Remington is my favorite right now, it has the Cabelas system 209.
