Default BH209 Ignition With Knight Plastic Jacket

I have a Knight LK-93 and a disc elite that use the knight 209 plastic jacket. Has anyone shot BH-209 in either one of these rifles and if so did you get good ignition?

I got flawless ignition in my disc elite. I would be a little more concerned about the wolverine. I think you would get ignition ok but the blowback and pieces of primer thrown back in a gunwith a plunger type actionare a concern. I have not tried the powder in that type of action myself but have read reports. I think Cayuga may have shot it in a White.

It apparently depends upon whether you have the concave plug or the domed plug. Yours is probably concave and that's the one you want for BH209.

The open breech is going to be a problem. I shot it in a Black Diamond Xr. While the powder did shoot well, a slight hangfire once, it blew the primers backward toward the shooter. I also shot BlackHorn in my Knight Disc with the orange primer jacket with no problem at all.
