I was able to get out and shoot the breechplug that ronlaughlin sent me. Results??? Just what I expected from what I'd heard about his work. I used Remington STS primers behind 90gr of BH209 and had NO ignition problems. There was no blowback. The primers are still squeaky clean. I only shot a handful of times, but I'll take it out some other time and see how many shots I can get out of it without cleaning it.

This evening was uneventful in the woods, but I plan on putting that BP to work on a deer in the morning. Thanks again, Ron! Great work!
