Hello,
We are working on a Knight Disc Extreme 50 caliber rifle made the first year of production. I am still looking for BackHorn 209 powder but will find some, eventually. My specialty is long range precision shooting with a centerfire rifle and I am left with the impression that a conversion to using a large rifle primer will result in more consistent ignition, Therefore consistent velocities, whether lower or higher, the key is consistency, thus accuracy!
My first hunt will be in late December in northern Missouri and I am wondering if there are any forum readers who have made this conversion and whether it could be a cold weather issue or not. I have the 209 primers and red containers they are used with in this rifle and can live with getting to learn that system, as this is all new to me. However, I would like to learn exactly what would be involved in a large rifle primer conversion for this rifle. if someone has made the conversion already, I would like to read about that experience.
Thank You,
WW
