Send LHR an email and ask them or in fact, ask those that who shoot an LHR. Im not doing your homework for you
So you can't supply the links that's fine. Your also saying I won't freeze my MR plug shooting 777 or Pyrodex right?

Actually I even found a post from one of my own members that had problems with his LHR and primers:

"Went to the range to sight in the Redemption. I'm using BH 209 powder and I mistakenly grabbed the CCI muzzleloader primers instead of the CCI magnum shot shell primers. Only had one partial ignition short round which surprised me out of about 15 shots. About half the primers were very hard to remove and a few needed a tool because I couldn't remove them with my fingers. I'm hoping the CCI magnum shot shell primers will be different.

Unlike NAME REMOVED, I did experience a little blowback. The primers were always dark and there was some residue on the receiver around the firing pin area. The rifle did shoot nice and I especially like the clean up with the new style breech plug with the threads on the out side. The rifle is a little heavy. Equipped with scope, sling and the Warne rings it weighed in at 9 lbs. 2 oz. My Accura MR equipped with scope, sling and Durasight ring weighs in at 8 lbs 4 oz."

He supplied good information and I agree. Like I said I would tweek the plug, and that might eliminate his problem. I'll figure that out pretty easy this weekend. Actually, the plug would just need to go up against a wall instead of being open like it is. But I'll keep an eye on that for sure.

As to your question about your QRBP freezing up. I do not know. If its sealed, no problem.

Blackhorn themselves tell you to use hotter Mag primers and not the ML primers such as the Rem CS's.

I can shoot BH209 fine with Winchester T7 primers and even the CCI Inline MZL primers with the blackhorn209 QRBP.

Your right but no need with good designed breech plugs. Most Knights, Omegas, Encores, will shoot BH209 right out of the box with any primer.

I'm going to say this one more time. If CVA said there plug was tool less, my only complaint so far is why not make one plug for all powders. That would eliminate the BH209 plug coming and not fitting in the gun like mine right now.
How about you think for a second. Is the CVA quicker than the Knight? Is it quicker than the previous CVA that needed a wrench? Is it quicker than the Omega? etc etc

Does it have to be quicker than every gun made to use the word quicker?

Seriously, your point is weak as hell.
