Default Knight Extreme and 777

Which BP do you guys recommend with a Knight extreme and 777, the FPJ or the NFPJ?
Do you see any difference in accuracy with one or the other? Is one cleaner than the other? Is it OK to use the regular 209 primers or are you better off with the ML primers? I am familiar with the blowback issues.
Thanks.

try every 209 primer you can find. My rifles really prefer the 777 primers or winchester w209 muzzleloading primers.

It really is a personal choice thing... I really do prefer the FPJ vs the NFPJ, but just as many other may chose it the other way.

For myself in cold weather the FPJ is much easier to handle. Another down-fall of the NFPJ is everyonece in awhile you can stick a primer and it is almost impossible to get the bolt back.

I would say that the NFPJ is the cleaner of the two.

I also shoot T7 and normally it is believed to shoot the cooler 209 to help reduce the 'crud ring' formed in some guns by T7.
