209 vs no.11 bullet impact help!!!!!!
Hope someone can help me!
Just got a older traditions lighting bolt action muzzleloader and it has a no.ll ignition system, i want to put the 209 conversion kit in it but i am concerned that once i do the convertion, my zero will change and i will be forced to rezero my gun.
Normally not a big deal just time restaints not allowing me lots of time to shoot.
currenty the gun is hitting 1.5" high at 100yrds.
Thanks everyone.

100gr pyrodex pellets with 245gr sabots.
I want to change because i just picked this gun up 2 nights ago because my old buckhunter was worn out, it had the 209 convertion kit in it, and i want this one also to use 209's.
I had lots of issue's with #11's years ago with moisture because this time of year we get lots of s@*t weather up here, and i only get a 10 season so i don't want any misfires.

That's what I said. I'd also use mild 209 primers. The ones made for muzzleloaders. They will shoot better with Pyrodex.
I would also go to powder. Elk and deer crap pellets. Guns should shoot powder. It works better.
