I just traded for a ruger 77/50 today and it didn't come with a breech plug wrench and I can't seem to find one on the net. I was wondering if anyone might know where i could find one. Do they do alright with the 11 cap or should i get the 209 kit from canada? Any other advice would be appreciated thanks

I picked a Ruger last year in a trade and think it's a well built, straight shootin rifle. It had a 209 conversion kit when I got it. I drilled out the flash hole to .035 and went to CCI mag primers and got it shooting BH 209 without any hangfires. The most accurate load I've found so far is 110gnv BH, 300gn XTP, RCR sabot. The man I got it from shot T7 and 250gn Shockwaves with good results. The only downside that I see is that it takes a while to clean. It has more blowback than any of my other ML'ers. Overall, It's a keeper in my book.
