I had some one PM me it may not be worth it only because the open action on the thunderhawk He tried it and was not happy with the set up
I just may stick with triple 777 and the number 11 caps
I was thinking in trying BH209 powder in the inline
any one here try it and what are your pro or cons with the 209 set-up

I have both a Thunderhawk, and Firehawk. I converted the Firehawk to use 209 primers years ago. Accuracy went down with 209's. I put in a musket cap nipple, use musket caps, and accuracy, and ignition is fine. I also use a musket cap in my Thunderhawk. A standard musket cap nipple fits right in both ML's.
