I can say Fiocchi primers I have seen tested are milder then T7 primers and I have used them to ignite BH209 and a friend uses them exclusively. I have about 30 T7 primers left and when the .45 Omega makes its next range trip I will use some. I plan on buying no more T7 primers as I have found they are dirty and do nothing to help with the crud ring anyway when using T7...........and they cost twice as much as regular primers.
Even if T7 primers functioned flawlessly in my gun I would still use a full strength primer for hunting for the added ignition security. That goes for any inline I have in the safe. Western Powders recommends a full strength primer anyway so why take the chance. Range work is one thing testing a plug out with mild primers but sitting with a loaded gun in sub freezing temps for hours is different then load and fire.
The way I see it TC was ahead of their time with the Omega plug and did not need to redesign a new one for BH209.
Title of post is misleading. Most of us already know the Lehigh plug was designed for BH209 and Knight DISC based rifles before Knight had new owners.
BTW: $70.00 for a rangerod? $70.00 buys alot of bullets and sabots IMO. I have no problem using the supplied rods with a Spinjag or RATT Jag for loading. Just my .02 on the rod. If it was priced within reason I would purchase one though.
