On a Knight there are two different breech plugs one for Red Plastic Jacket and primer - FPJ or Bare Primer breech plug for just inserting a bare primer. But it takes two types of bolt housing also. When you order a Knight bolt action you order 1 of 3 different ignition systems - FPJ - NFPJ - or Western for caps. You make that decision when you order or purchase the rifle. But all three systems will inter change.

The FPJ and the NFPJ will both ignite BH but normally the NFPJ is a more reliable ignition source.
