[QUOTE="Brute, post: 446875, member: 3629"] I've currently got the 209 primer conversion in my 700. It shoots woderful with loose 777 or pyrodex. No ignition problems with either of those. BH 209 is another story. The manufacturer says you need a closed nipple to get consistent ignition and they're right. Unfortunately my nipple is vented and I am struggling to remove the nipple from the breech plug, ain't sure it's not made in one piece. Was mostly looking for anyone who had made the nipple switch on a Rem. Don't mean from caps to primers or vice versa,but from a vented nipple to a nonvented such as the one offered by 'Precision Muzzleloading" . As for the time and trouble of getting a 700 ML to shoot and the blowback problem I'm satisfied with mine's performance but just wanted to try the BH 209. The Rem. shoots with any ML I've previously worked with and in the last 30 yrs. that includes most of what's out there either for my personal use or for customers. YMMV. Brute [/QUOTE]
