silverstreak

I am in Idaho and Idaho is one of the states that still does not allow 209 ignition.

Reading your regulation which is sort of the typical regulation - The ignition system must be open to the elements. Using a 209 reduces, somewhat, the chances of the weather contamination of the ignition system. The 209 also providesa hotter ingnition temperature that last longer than any cap ignition, therefor it is considered a more reliable system with substitute powders

Those are the exact words taken from their muzzleloader regulations review. Now does that mean that if I purchase a muzzleloader such as TC Black Diamond or White Ultra Mag, which are both considered open ignition rifles, I can legally use the 209 primer.
Yes...
