Default Wolf and blackhorn?

Has anyone tried Blackhorn 209 powder in a CVA Wolf with the speed breech? Any info will be helpful.

CVA makes an optional breech plug specifically for BH209 that works on the Wolf. You can get it from their website.

I think the factory original will work just fine.

It wouldn't ignite in one poster's Wolf and he needed to use a booster charge of 777 to ignite it.
He said that he was using Winchester shotgun primers that he uses for reloading 10 gauge shotshells.
Another person with a new Omega posted in the same thread that his gun had a problem igniting it too.
He was using CCI primers and could only get it to fire 50% of the time on the 1st attempt.

I can only tell you that I do not have the new breech plug and I have not had a misfire or delayed ignition yet.
