Cci primers

[reloadxx]

Can you shoot these threw a muzzleloader? My local Walmart had these in the muzzleloader section. I have Google and it says not to but people was buying them up at Walmart.

Yes, as a matter of fact Blackhorn needs these.

Shotshell is the keyword. I use them in my ML's for Blackhorn as well. CCI Mag primers are for rifle cartridges tho.

I started using muzzleloader 209 primers with pyrodex, and they worked, but had a few FTF when I switched to Blackhorn. Started using these for all my loads, pyrodex and blackhorn with no noticeable issues.

Re: Cci primers

There are only two primers that Blackhorn recommends on their website, both magnums:
CCI 209M
Federal 209A

Plus, I just talked to Don at Blackhorn this week and said there were two more brands (from Europe) that could be used, and may be easier to find during these times. He said these can be found at places that cater to waterfowl hunters:
Rio G-1000 209P
Cheddite CH209

Re: Cci primers

Nobel 688/209 are better than the Cheddites or Rio for igniting BH209. There is also a Nobel 686/209 with slightly less power. The 688 is their "mag" primer but its not as hot as USA made mag 209s. Cheddites are extremely short 209s and the Nobel are as long as a Win209 but larger OD than both.

These may not fit USA made rifles without enlarging the primer pocket. They WILL fit CVAs.
