I have shot about 30 –40 shot of BH209 and like it very well so far. IMO it is the sabot tightness in the bore. It does not have to be quite as tight as my smokeless Savage but I did get a missfire with BH209 and a real loose fit. I did this on purpose to see if it would fire.
Good idea to try that. Do you have to compress the charge like you have to with the Savage? Do you have to use a Federal or Winchester Primer, like you do with the Savage? Do you think it will eat breech plugs at $28/plug like smokeless 4198 does with the Savage and Savage Ventliners?
