I'm not doubting you had many a misfire off of the Remingtons and I think I was using the regular CCI's which I was not a huge fan of. I am using a Hot Shot nipple and it's really not that I'm having any real trouble, I just want to see if I can get Pyrodex to touch off like Goex. After hunting season (which starts on the 10th of Sept.) I'll play around a bit with some different options and see what happens.
