No disagreement again. However many have had problems with standard 209 primers in T/C or other rifles and with the proper breech plug, or is that in complete denial too? Of course you can blame it on breech plugs that are not designed in the first place to shoot BH, but what say ye to those who've had problems with the proper plugs? Operator error, or other excuse?

If you have great luck with ANY primer, stick with it. However when its known that others have had problems and WITH the proper breech plug, why not recommend the magnum primers?

How about we just settle on this....... you guys recommend WIN209 primers that work in your rifles. I'll recommend magnum 209 primers that have worked in mine. Then we can set back and let the multitude of shooters decide? I'll answer to them why they had a HF or FTF with magnum primers, you answer to them why it happened with standard primers.
