I am trying to go with Blackhorn powder in My CVA Otpima. already ordered the proper breech plug.

Problem is I only have 10 Winchester W209 primers left. I have several boxes of federal Muzzleloader primers. But from what I have read this powder requires something with a little more fire in the primer.
Any suggestions or would you be willing to trade out a few primers?

I might have some W209 primers that I can get to you. I’ll have to check.

I have used W209 and Remington klean bore with no real difference.

If you can find it online, I would look for posts about what people with Maxim 50's are using. The only manufacturer-endorsed load for that thing is 100gr BH209, although I have gotten away with 35 and 50 grain loads for experimentation.
